Pulmonary Medicine Information
Pulmonary Rehabilitation:
Pulmonary rehab is designed to improve several physical problems that arise as a result of advanced lung disease. Pulmonary Rehab is a program of exercise, education and training for patients with chronic and advanced lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). It is designed to help patients improve their functional status and quality of life
Pulmonary Rehabilitation Locations:

Procedures in the Clinic
Pulmonary Function Test: or PFTs, measure how well your lungs work. They include tests that measure lung size and air flow, such as spirometry and lung volume tests. Other tests measure how well gases such as oxygen get in and out of your blood. These tests include pulse oximetry and arterial blood gas tests. Another pulmonary function test, called fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), measures nitric oxide, which is a marker for inflammation in the lungs. You may have one or more of these tests to diagnose lung and airway diseases, compare your lung function to expected levels of function, monitor if your disease is stable or worsening, and see if your treatment is working (courtesy NIH).

Procedures in The Hospital
Bronchoscopy: The Endoscopic Bronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) is a new minimally invasive, highly effective technique used to diagnose and stage lung cancer, infections, and other diseases causing enlarged lymph nodes in the chest. The EBUS technique allows the physician direct visualization of nodes or masses in the lungs for biopsy or tissue sampling and reduces the need for a more invasive surgical procedure.

Thoracentesis: The space between the lungs and the rib cage is called the pleural space. Normally, there is a small amount of fluid in this space.
Sometimes, excess fluid can accumulate in the pleural space. Doctors refer to this as pleural effusion. It can cause several symptoms, including an inability to breathe properly. A thoracentesis, also called a pleural tap, is a procedure to remove this fluid. Click here for Thoracentesis instructions.
