Treatments
Asthma Management
Our pulmonology department specializes in the diagnosis and management of asthma, a chronic respiratory condition characterized by airway inflammation and recurrent breathing difficulties. Our expert pulmonologists develop personalized treatment plans that include medication management, inhalation therapy, lifestyle modifications, and education on asthma triggers and self-management techniques. Our goal is to achieve optimal asthma control, minimize symptoms, and enhance patients' overall lung function.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Care
COPD is a progressive lung disease that encompasses conditions such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Our pulmonologists are experienced in diagnosing and managing COPD, providing comprehensive treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique needs. We offer smoking cessation counseling, pulmonary rehabilitation programs, medication management, and oxygen therapy to improve symptoms, enhance lung function, and slow disease progression.
Respiratory Infections
Rapha Aroma's pulmonology department provides expert diagnosis and treatment for various respiratory infections, including pneumonia, bronchitis, and tuberculosis. Our pulmonologists utilize advanced diagnostic techniques, such as chest X-rays, CT scans, and sputum analysis, to accurately identify the underlying infection. We offer personalized treatment plans that may involve antibiotic therapy, antiviral medications, and supportive care to effectively manage respiratory infections and promote recovery.
Interventional Pulmonology
Our pulmonology department offers advanced interventional procedures to diagnose and treat complex lung conditions. These minimally invasive procedures, including bronchoscopy, endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), and navigational bronchoscopy, allow our pulmonologists to obtain tissue samples, remove airway obstructions, and deliver targeted therapies. By utilizing these advanced techniques, we can provide precise diagnosis and treatment options, minimizing the need for more invasive surgical interventions.
Sleep Disorders Management
We specialize in the diagnosis and management of sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea, insomnia, and narcolepsy. Our pulmonologists collaborate with sleep specialists to conduct comprehensive sleep studies, analyze sleep patterns, and develop customized treatment plans. We offer therapies such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), lifestyle modifications, and behavioral therapies to improve sleep quality and address underlying sleep disorders.
Pulmonary Function Testing
Rapha Aroma's pulmonology department is equipped with advanced facilities for pulmonary function testing, which allows us to assess lung function and diagnose respiratory conditions accurately. We perform spirometry, lung volume measurements, diffusion capacity tests, and exercise tolerance assessments to evaluate lung capacity, airway resistance, and gas exchange efficiency. These tests aid in accurate diagnosis, monitoring disease progression, and evaluating treatment effectiveness.
Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Our pulmonology department offers comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation programs for patients with chronic lung diseases. These programs combine exercise training, breathing techniques, education, and nutritional counseling to improve lung function, enhance physical endurance, and promote overall respiratory health. Our multidisciplinary team provides personalized rehabilitation plans to optimize patients' quality of life and reduce respiratory symptoms.
