| definition |
A respiratory infection caused by BORDETELLA PERTUSSIS and characterized by paroxysmal coughing ending in a prolonged crowing intake of breath. 顿咳，中医病名。小儿时期感受时行邪毒引起的肺系时行疾病，临床以阵发性痉挛咳嗽，咳后有特殊的鸡啼样吸气性吼声为特征。本病因其咳嗽特征又名“顿呛”、“顿嗽”、“鹭鸶咳”；因其具有传染性，故又称“天哮呛”、“疫咳”。 Whooping cough, also known as pertussis or the 100-day cough, is a highly contagious bacterial disease. Initial symptoms are usually similar to those of the common cold with a runny nose, fever, and mild cough, but these are followed by weeks of severe coughing fits. Following a fit of coughing, a high-pitched whoop sound or gasp may occur as the person breathes in. The coughing may last for 10 or more weeks, hence the phrase "100-day cough". |
