AeirSeal Emphysema Treatment Begins US Trials

AeirSeal Emphysema Treatment Begins US Trials
Nov-06-12
The AeriSeal, a polymer foam designed to help treat emphysema, is undergoing its first US late-stage clinical trials.

The AeriSeal system, which is used to reduce lung volume in patients with severe emphysema, has already been approved in Isreal and parts of Europe. Emphysema affects the patient by causing the air sacs in the lung to fill with air the body cannot exhale, resulting in pressure on the diaphragm and making breathing difficult.

The AeriSeal is offered as an alternative to surgery, and is performed by a standard bronchoscopy, by which a catheter is fed to the most affected part of the lung. The propriety polymer foam consists of two liquid parts that are mixed together with air just before injection on the site, where it hardens within a half-hour to a stiff rubber that blocks off the holes in the air sacs of the damaged regions. As the air sacs deflate, the lung shrinks, removing the pressure from the diaphragm.

I have had ASTHMA my whole life but about 7 years ago my asthma got so bad and was diagnosed of EMPHYSEMA/COPD which was most likely due to the asthma. I was on double antibiotics and steroids, still didn't feel any better. My lungs were constantly wheezing in all four chambers, i already used Advair, Spiriva, and Albuterol in my nebulizer, they just didn’t do much. April 2016 my sister in-law told us about Rich Herbs Foundation where she ordered herbs that effectively treated her arthritis. We ordered their COPD herbal treatment after reading alot of positive reviews, i am happy to report this COPD herbal treatment reversed my lungs condition. My quality of life has greatly improved and every one of my symptoms including difficulty breathing and wheezing are gone. Their official web page is w w w. r i c h h e r b s f o u n d a t i o n. c o m. I will be 52 soon and have never been healthier!

I was diagnosed of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in 2012 at the age of 63. I had been a heavy smoker, my symptoms started out with dry cough and shortness of breath, i ended up in the hospital, on a ventilator. I should have known it was coming, but like most smokers, thought it would never happen to me. My COPD got significantly worse and unbearable because of my difficulty catching breath. Last year, i started on a natural COPD Herbal therapy from Natural Herbal Gardens, i read a lot of positive reviews from patients who used the treatment and i immediately started on it. I had great relief with this herbal treatment. I breath very much better now, no case of shortness of breath or chest tightness since treatment. Visit Natural Herbal Gardens website ww w. naturalherbalgardens. com. This COPD treatment is a miracle!!

I have been diagnosed with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and My doctor has given me Seebri Breezhaler, it's an inhalation powder 44 micrograms. I take it once a day in the morning. It never helped my breathing condition positively. Presently I am taking BEST HEALTH HERBAL CENTRE COPD HERBAL FORMULA TREATMENT (ww w .besthealthherbalcentre .c om). I take it twice daily morning and evening. It's a great help to breathing, it's a powerful herbal formula, 10 out of 10 from me!

And if you have this kind of illness , there is no need to waste money on Corticosteroids or Zephyr Valve, or allowing doctors to waste their time on you instead why don’t you go get herbal products from multivitamincare.org use it and see for yourself And they also cures and heal other diseases, it very important you recommend this formula to anyone at there suffering from this illness people don’t know they exist .
