The study team proposes a randomized controlled trial of CPAP (n=100) vs. control (n=100) in COVID-19 suspected or confirmed patients with pneumonia or respiratory illness. The overarching aim of this proposal is to determine if early use of CPAP at home will reduce hypoxemic events or reduce the
Introduction:
Pneumothorax and hydro-pneumothorax are the common thoracic injuries which have a severe risk of morbidity. In such a condition either gas or air remains in pleural cavity, a space between visceral and parietal pleura of lung1or air and fluid both are present where air fluid level can
The investigators selected hospitalized subjects with confirmed or suspected moderate or severe PCP: the diagnostic certainty will be based on the following criteria:
Proved PCP. Defined as cases with presence of P. jirovecii cysts in bronchial alveolar lavage (BAL) exams or lung biopsy.

[Background and Objective] :Air leak produced after thoracic surgery is a common phenomenon.Prolonged chest tube placement can lead to empyema or infection, and extended hospitalization or even death. In 2010 many researchers reported that The incidence of lung resection produce air leak about 8-26%

Introduction:
Pneumonia is the single largest cause of death in children less than 5 years old and these are preventable deaths.[1,2] It is also an important cause of morbidity , especially when it is recurrent or severe as it may be linked with future adult lung disease.[3] Determining the
