Overview
Historical Perspective
Acute bronchitis was first described by Charles Badham in 1808 in England[1]. In 1821, Dr. Rene Laennec, known as the father of chest medicine described bronchitis in details[2] .
Pathophysiology
The causative agent, either viruses or bacteria transmitted via airways to the large and medium size airways tract and inoculate the epithelium that leads to inflammation, thickening, and increased mucus production in the airways[3].Epithelial-cell desquamation and denuding of the airway to the level of the basement membrane in association with the presence of a lymphocytic cellular infiltrate have been demonstrated on microscopic examination[3].
Causes
Common causes of acute bronchitis include viruses, Bacteria and environmental factors. Among them,influenza is the most common[4][5][6]..
