Blog for Respiratory-Medicine-Post-Graduates of Apollo Hospitals,Chennai,India - Diplomate National Board(DNB), started in the Year 2009 October ,by PGs & the Academic Co-Ordinator of Department - Dr.R.P.Ilangho - for enabling these Young PGs to INTER_CONNECT ideally for becoming better Pulmonologists.The word~ REMAP09 ~ was coined thus:RE= RE spiratory M=M edicine A=Apollo P= P ostGraduate 09= 2009 - thus meaning "Respiratory Medicine Apollo PostGraduate 2009 batch"

Causes of impalpable apical impulse
-overweight
-hyperinflated lungs
-behind the rib
-pericardial effusion
-dextrocardia
AE - COPD
- An exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is defined as
"an acute event characterized by a worsening of the patient's respiratory symptoms that is beyond normal day-to-day variations and leads to a change in medication"
by the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), a report produced by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the World Health Organization (WHO).
- This generally includes an acute change in one or more of the following cardinal symptoms:
●Cough increases in frequency and severity
●Sputum production increases in volume and/or changes character
●Dyspnea increases
