  3. Therefore, the matched condition is:

Bonus Knowledge

Pneumoconiosis refers to the lung condition caused by the inhalation of certain dust particles, which can lead to the formation of scar tissue in the lungs. It’s often associated with occupational exposure to substances like coal dust, asbestos, or silica. Over time, these particles can provoke inflammatory responses, resulting in stifled lung function and progressive respiratory issues.
In terms of prevention and management, it’s crucial for at-risk individuals to use protective equipment and monitor lung health regularly. Additionally, educating workers about the dangers of inhaling harmful particles is a key strategy in reducing the incidence of pneumoconiosis and maintaining healthy lungs throughout their careers.

Vs are T 101.6F∘, P 98, R 36, BP 150/90. On examination, he is cyanotic and frightened and has nasal prongs in his nose. Air entry is diminished in both lungs, and there are crackles at both bases.
