Our Treatments
Breathe new life into your respiratory health, paving the way for a brighter future.
Asthma
Asthma: Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing. While asthma is manageable with medications and lifestyle adjustments, severe attacks can be life-threatening.
COPD
COPD: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung condition that includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It causes airflow obstruction and chronic inflammation in the airways, leading to symptoms like coughing, excessive mucus production, and shortness of breath. Smoking is a significant risk factor for COPD.
Interstitial Lung diseases
Interstitial Lung Diseases: Interstitial lung diseases are a group of lung disorders that primarily affect the interstitial tissues between air sacs. These conditions lead to difficulty breathing, reduced lung capacity, and lung scarring (fibrosis). Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is one of the more well-known interstitial lung diseases.
Pneumonia and Sepsis
Pneumonia is an inflammatory condition affecting the air sacs in the lungs, typically caused by infections such as bacteria, viruses, or fungi. In severe cases, pneumonia can lead to complications like sepsis, a life-threatening response to infection that can result in organ failure. Timely medical intervention is crucial for effective treatment and prevention of complications.
Our Ailments
Breathe new life into your respiratory health, paving the way for a brighter future.
Pulmonary Embolism
Pulmonary embolism occurs when a blood clot, usually from the legs, travels to the lungs and blocks a pulmonary artery. This sudden obstruction can lead to chest pain, difficulty breathing, and potentially life-threatening complications. Prompt diagnosis and treatment, often involving anticoagulant medications, are vital for improving outcomes and preventing recurrence.
Latest Technology Utilisation
In the Respiratory Medicine department, advanced pulmonary function testing and imaging technologies play a crucial role in patient evaluation and treatment.
