Kushelevsky Symptom

Kushelevsky symptom (or Kushelevsky test) is a diagnostic method developed by the Soviet therapist Boris Pavlovich Kushelevsky in 1890. This method is used to determine if there is inflammation in the lungs, especially pneumonia (pneumonia).

The essence of the method is that during pneumonia, air bubbles form in the lungs, which can be detected by listening to the lungs with a stethoscope. If, when listening to the lungs, the doctor hears characteristic sounds indicating the presence of air bubbles, this may be a sign of pneumonia.

To perform the Kushelev test, it is necessary to palpate the lungs. The doctor should place their hand on the patient's chest and feel it for signs of inflammation. With this method, you need to pay attention to the following signs:

1. Presence of pain on palpation of the lungs. This may indicate the presence of inflammation in the lungs.
2. The presence of noise or wheezing when listening to the lungs. These sounds may indicate the presence of air bubbles in the lungs.
3. Changes in the shape of the chest during inhalation and exhalation. This may indicate difficulty breathing due to pneumonia.

Kuschel syndrome is a rare neurological disorder that causes seizures, excruciating headaches, nausea and vomiting.

This disease often occurs in patients with migraines, schizophrenia, epilepsy and other mental disorders. However, for what reasons Kuschel syndrome occurs, and what analysis shows its presence, doctors do not know for sure. Moreover, if
