As an illustration, the trachea is approximately 50 mm. in circumference, and this is the width of the stream bed in which the mucous blanket flows. Each of the main bronchi is 35 to 40 mm. in ...

But that’s a sign that the cilia are helping to clear extra mucus out of your lungs. Smoking isn’t an easy habit to break, but you’ll improve the way your lungs work if you quit.

The researchers noted the importance of timely interventions in human airway monitoring, especially when stents are inserted into the central airway of a patient with serious diseases. Assistant ...

A system of artificial cilia capable of monitoring mucus conditions in human airways to better detect infection, airway obstruction, or the severity of diseases like Cystic Fibrosis (CF), Chronic ...

The method used by me was modified from that described by Corssen and Allen. 22 From the trachea and bronchi of human beings (or animals) a cup 2 to 3 mm. wide is gently used to "scrape" off the ...

Treatment and Rehabilitation Injuries, infections, and diseases of the trachea can cause damage to the airway, and it can’t always be fixed or healed. Tracheal stenosis is one example. In this case, ...
