Pulmonology is a specialized field focusing on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases and conditions related to the respiratory system. At Unity Gastro & Liver Hospital, our expert pulmonologists are dedicated to providing comprehensive care for a wide range of pulmonary conditions, helping you breathe easier and improve your overall lung health.

Our Pulmonology Services Include:

• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): COPD is a progressive lung disease that causes breathing difficulties due to airflow obstruction. Our treatments aim to manage symptoms, improve lung function, and enhance quality of life through medications, lifestyle changes, and pulmonary rehabilitation.

• Asthma: Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing. We offer personalized treatment plans including inhalers, medications, and strategies to manage and prevent asthma attacks.

• Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD): ILD encompasses a group of disorders affecting the lung interstitium (tissue around the air sacs), leading to scarring and impaired lung function. Our approach includes advanced diagnostics, medication management, and ongoing monitoring to manage symptoms and slow disease progression.

• Pneumonia: Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs that can cause symptoms such as cough, fever, and difficulty breathing. We provide comprehensive care including antibiotics, supportive therapies, and follow-up care to ensure effective treatment and recovery.

• Tuberculosis (TB): TB is a bacterial infection that primarily affects the lungs but can also impact other parts of the body. We offer diagnostic testing, treatment regimens, and follow-up care to manage and cure tuberculosis.

• Lung Cancer: Lung cancer is a serious condition that requires early detection and comprehensive treatment. We utilize advanced diagnostic tools, including imaging and biopsies, to provide targeted therapies and support throughout the treatment process.

• Sleep Apnea: Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder characterized by pauses in breathing during sleep. We offer diagnostic testing, including polysomnography, and effective treatment options such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy to improve sleep quality and overall health.

• Pulmonary Fibrosis: Pulmonary fibrosis involves scarring of the lung tissue, leading to breathing difficulties. Our team provides advanced diagnostic evaluations and tailored treatment plans to manage symptoms and improve lung function.

• Bronchitis: Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tubes, leading to coughing and mucus production. We offer treatments to manage symptoms, reduce inflammation, and prevent complications.

• Pleural Effusion: Pleural effusion is the accumulation of fluid between the layers of the pleura surrounding the lungs. We provide diagnostic evaluations, fluid drainage procedures, and treatment options to address the underlying cause and relieve symptoms.

Advanced Diagnostics and Treatments:

• Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs): These tests measure lung function and capacity, helping us diagnose and monitor respiratory conditions accurately.

• Bronchoscopy: A minimally invasive procedure that allows direct visualization of the airways and lungs, aiding in the diagnosis and treatment of various pulmonary conditions.

• Chest Imaging: Advanced imaging techniques, such as chest X-rays and CT scans, are used to assess lung health and identify abnormalities.

• Oxygen Therapy: For patients with chronic lung conditions, we provide oxygen therapy to ensure adequate oxygen levels and improve quality of life.

• Pulmonary Rehabilitation: A comprehensive program combining education, exercise, and support to help patients manage chronic respiratory conditions and improve overall lung function.
