Care for Your Lungs and Breathing Problems
Our Department of Pulmonology offers comprehensive respiratory care with a strong focus on diagnosis, long-term disease management, and preventive strategies. Equipped with advanced diagnostic tools and therapeutic technology, we aim to enhance lung capacity, manage chronic disease, and provide relief during acute respiratory distress. The inclusion of cardiothoracic surgical evaluation for selected thoracic conditions — such as mediastinal masses or recurrent pleural effusions — brings an added layer of support to our already robust medical team. This approach ensures patients receive the most appropriate care without unnecessary delay.
We Specialize In
Our Pulmonology Department ensures exceptional respiratory care with the support of advanced technology and specialized facilities for accurate diagnosis, effective treatment, and ongoing management of lung and breathing conditions.
Asthma & Allergy Management
Personalized inhaler plans, environmental control, and allergy desensitization for chronic airway inflammation.
Sleep Apnea & Snoring Disorders
Diagnosis through polysomnography and therapy via CPAP/BiPAP devices.
Fibrosis Management
HRCT-based diagnosis and treatment with immunosuppressants and antifibrotic therapy.
COPD & Bronchitis Care
Medication, oxygen therapy, and rehabilitation for improved breathing and energy.
Lung Infections & Pneumonia
Hospital-acquired and community pneumonia care with imaging and targeted therapy.
Smoking Cessation & Lung Risk Reduction
Structured de-addiction programs for lung protection and recovery.
Tuberculosis & Post-TB Lung Care
Medical management for active TB and follow-up care for fibrosis, cavitation, and residual symptoms.
Pleural Diseases
Thoracentesis, ICD placement, and pleurodesis for effusion, pneumothorax performed safely under imaging guidance.
Bronchoscopic Procedures
Diagnostic and therapeutic bronchoscopy, foreign body removal, BAL, and transbronchial biopsies.
Our Facilities
Exceptional care is ensured by our department of Orthopedics with the following advanced facilities.
ICU with Mechanical Ventilation
At Sri Hospitals, our Pulmonology team provides 24/7 advanced ICU support for acute respiratory failure and ARDS care, using cutting-edge technology and expert monitoring to ensure safe and effective recovery.
Operation Theatres with Bronchoscopy
Our Modular Operation Theatres with bronchoscopy support is fully equipped for thoracic procedures like thoracentesis, ICD placement, and airway interventions, ensuring safe, accurate, and minimally invasive lung and chest treatments.
CT Scan & Digital X-Ray
Delivering quick and thorough diagnostic imaging. Digital X-rays and CT-Scan are available around-the-clock and provide quick, high-quality radiography images.
State-of-the-art ICU
We provide crucial post-operative treatment in an intensive care unit (ICU) 24/7.
Modular Operation Theaters
Our contemporary operating rooms include laminar airflow which provide a sterile environment.
GE C-Arm with Low Radiation
Real-time visualization during surgery is required to improve accuracy and lower radiation exposure.
Sleep Study
We offer overnight Polysomnography (Sleep Study) to diagnose sleep-related breathing disorders, such as sleep apnea, helping us create effective treatment plans for better rest, health, and overall well-being.
Pulmonary Function Testing (PFT)
We conduct Pulmonary Function Testing (PFT) to measure lung capacity, airflow, and gas exchange, helping diagnose and manage conditions like asthma, COPD, and other chronic respiratory disorders effectively.
Bedside Thoracic Ultrasound
We use bedside thoracic ultrasound for safe and accurate pleural interventions, such as fluid drainage, and for real-time monitoring of lung and chest conditions directly at the patient’s bedside.
Neuromonitoring
We use neuromonitoring during brain and spine procedures to enhance patient safety and ensure precise surgical outcomes.
Comprehensive Rehabilitation
A distinct team of fitness and physiotherapists will assist an injured person in recovering from surgery in the hospital and home.
CT Scan & Digital X-Ray
Delivering quick and thorough diagnostic imaging. Digital X-rays and CT-Scan are available around-the-clock and provide quick, high-quality radiography images.
