Management of respiratory conditions involves both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions:
- Medications: Bronchodilators, corticosteroids, and antibiotics are commonly prescribed to manage symptoms and treat infections. - Oxygen Therapy: Supplemental oxygen may be necessary for patients with low oxygen levels. - Chest Physiotherapy: Techniques such as percussion and postural drainage help clear mucus from the lungs. - Patient Education: Teaching patients about their condition, medication use, and lifestyle modifications is essential for effective management.
