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.

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.

• 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 .
