The Department of Respiratory Medicine at DESUN is a highly specialized division providing a full range of services to cater to the special needs of those with pulmonary and respiratory ailments. It is fully equipped to effectively deal with disorders such as:
Pulmonology or Respiratory Medicine involves diseases and conditions affecting the lungs and evaluation of patients who present with breathlessness, cough, chest pain, wheezing, chest tightness, snoring, sleepiness, etc.
COPD is a common lung disease that blocks the airflow and makes it difficult to breathe. Damage to the lungs from COPD is very severe. Emphysema and Bronchitis are the two most common COPD conditions. Shortness of breath, wheezing, and chronic cough are some of the symptoms of COPD. Since COPD symptoms do not appear till significant lung damage has already been done, most patients living with COPD do not come in for treatment till it reaches a critical point.
Asthma is a condition in which a person's airways become inflamed, narrow and swell and produce extra mucus, which makes it difficult to breathe. Asthma can be minor or it can interfere with daily activities. In some cases, it may lead to a life-threatening attack. Asthma may cause difficulty breathing, chest pain, cough and wheezing. The symptoms may sometimes flare up and can become fatal.
Pulmonary fibrosis is a lung disease that occurs when lung tissue becomes damaged and scarred. This thickened, stiff tissue makes it more difficult for the lungs to work properly. As pulmonary fibrosis worsens, the patient becomes progressively more short of breath. Pulmonary fibrosis can be caused by many conditions including chronic inflammatory processes (sarcoidosis, Wegener's granulomatosis), infections and environmental agents (asbestos, silica, exposure to certain gases).
Pneumonia is a form of acute respiratory infection that affects the lungs. The lungs are made up of small sacs called alveoli, which fill with air when a healthy person breathes. When an individual has pneumonia, the alveoli are filled with pus and fluid, which makes breathing painful and limits oxygen intake. Pneumonia is caused by a number of infectious agents, including viruses, bacteria and fungi. Pneumonia can become fatal if not treated in its early stages.
