Department of Pulmonology
The Department of Pulmonology provides the full range of diagnostics and treatment for diseases of the respiratory system. The long clinical experience of doctors allows them to treat patients with diseases of any severity, ranging from bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary fibrosis, and pneumonia to lung and pleural tumors. Of particular interest to the department's specialists are interventional endoscopic procedures, both diagnostic and therapeutic. The department also has all the necessary resources for mechanical ventilation and intensive care for patients with lung diseases and other pathologies of the internal organs. The department houses a specialized Weaning Center. The medical team of the center is proud of its outstanding results: complete weaning occurs in approximately 80% of patients, and only 15% of patients require respiratory support at home after their hospital stay. The health of patients is in the safe hands of a highly qualified team consisting of pulmonologists, intensive care specialists, and pulmonary rehabilitation specialists. Doctors strictly adhere to current clinical protocols and give priority to the most sparing treatment. Hence, they primarily consider options such as drug therapy, oxygen therapy, respiratory exercises, etc. Endoscopic procedures on the organs of the respiratory system are performed in compliance with hygiene and safety standards. Pain management can also be provided if required.
