INDUSTRY

Oxygen in the air is essential for our life. Lung, like heart, is vital in delivering oxygenated
blood to entire body. Lungs illness is often overlooked and diagnosed late unlike heart
ailments. Awareness about lung illness is lacking among doctors as well as common
man. Lung, like skin, is directly exposed to harmful environmental air pollutants and
breathing; cough problem is increasing day by day especially in the fast growing urban area
of PCMC. Lung/Respiratory illness can range from simple allergic cough, Asthma,
Smoking/dust related COPD to Sleep Disorder breathing(like Snoring), Tuberculosis, Lung
Cancer and deaths in ICU from Respiratory failure(ARDS, Hospital acquired Pneumonia).
In India, unlike western world, a dedicated comprehensive Pulmonology combined with
Critical Intensivist super specialty training is lacking in Medical Colleges and university.

4. CLINIC CONSULTATION
Pulmonology is the subspecialty of internal medicine concerned with diseases of the lungs
and bronchial tubes, which often involves evaluation of the upper respiratory tract (nose,
pharynx and throat) as well as the heart. Pulmonologists must first complete seven or more
years of medical school and postgraduate training and become board certified in Internal
Medicine. Then, for an additional two to three years, they study conditions specific to the
respiratory system.
What pulmonologists do :
Pulmonologists are specially trained in diseases and conditions of the chest, such as
pneumonia, asthma, tuberculosis, emphysema, or complicated chest infections.

5. When you need a pulmonologist :
Not everyone who suffers from an acute respiratory condition or chronic respiratory
diseases needs a pulmonologist. Many of these conditions can be managed by a general
internist. Their skills are usually needed for patients with complex pulmonary problems, such
as emphysema, tuberculosis, asthma, complicated infections of the chest, the pulmonary
complications of AIDS, injury, and complications of respiratory diagnostic and therapeutic
procedures. Does a pulmonologist perform surgery?
They are called as an Interventional Pulmonologist. They perform specialized procedures to
obtain samples of the lining of the chest wall or of the lung itself. For example, they use
flexible fiber optics (Bronchoscopy) to see inside the air passages and extract sample pieces
for study. They also perform what is called Thracoscopy, a video camera guided biopsy and
treatment of fluid around lungs .
