BREATHE – Transforming Pulmonary Care
utics and Endoscopies, a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to transforming pulmonary care through advanced diagnostics, therapeutic interventions, and groundbreaking research.
Key Highlights of BREATHE
The newly inaugurated center is equipped with a comprehensive range of pulmonary services, ensuring world-class respiratory care:
- Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS): A minimally invasive procedure for diagnosing mediastinal lymphadenopathy, staging lung cancer, and sampling lung nodules with precision.
- Expanded Pulmonary Services: Offering Pulmonary Function Test (PFT), Bronchoscopy, Thoracoscopy, Pleural Procedures, Allergy Testing, and Sleep Apnoea Evaluation.
- NIV Bronchoscopies: Aiding critically ill patients with complex respiratory conditions through non-invasive techniques.
- Pediatric Bronchoscopy: Enhancing diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities for younger patients with respiratory concerns.
- Advanced Pleural Procedures: Performing minimally invasive pleural procedures, including IPC placement and adhesiolysis, ensuring effective pleural disease management.
- Endobronchial Surgical Procedures: Providing tumor debulking, cryoablation, stent placement, and tracheal stenosis management, offering comprehensive care for airway disorders.
- Imaging-Assisted Procedures: Utilizing Fluoroscopy and Cone Beam CT for precision-guided interventions, improving diagnostic accuracy and treatment outcomes.
Future Developments
BREATHE is set to evolve into a premier center for Interventional Pulmonology, with planned expansions into:
- Cryotherapy for advanced lung cancer and airway obstruction management
- Specialty Clinics focusing on niche respiratory conditions
- Pulmonary Rehabilitation programs for holistic patient care
- Research Initiatives to drive innovation in respiratory medicine
- A Lung Transplant Program to offer cutting-edge treatment options for end-stage lung diseases
Advancing Early Detection and Treatment
A major milestone for BREATHE is the integration of next-generation technologies for Enhanced Lung Nodule Sampling, significantly improving early detection and treatment of lung cancer. With the capability to diagnose nodules as small as 5mm with over 90% accuracy, the center sets a new benchmark in pulmonary healthcare, ensuring timely intervention and improved patient outcomes.
A Leader in Respiratory Care
The Department of Pulmonology at Believers Hospital has witnessed remarkable growth, surpassing the monthly OPD numbers of three major government medical colleges in the state. The inauguration of BREATHE further solidifies its position as a leader in respiratory care, providing patients with unparalleled access to advanced diagnostics, cutting-edge treatments, and comprehensive pulmonary services.
With its commitment to innovation and excellence, BREATHE stands as a beacon of hope for patients, paving the way for a healthier future through transformative pulmonary care.
