COPD/ Emphysema

persistent and long-term Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and emphysema are persistent and long-term lung conditions that get worse and worse over time and make breathing more and more worse and worse with passage of time. At Kateb Medical, we providecomplete care for patients with persistent and long-term cough, wheezing, fatigue, and shortness of breath. Our pulmonologist employs state-of-the-art diagnostic modalities such as spirometry and imaging to evaluate lung function and establish the severity of COPD or emphysema.

Treatment involves bronchodilators, inhaled steroids, oxygen therapy, and pulmonary rehabilitation programs to enable patients to regain control of their breathing. We also promote smoking cessation assistance and treat associated complications such as pneumonia, pulmonary hypertension, or respiratory failure. By developing a tailored treatment program, we enable patients to decrease flare-ups, retard the progression of disease, and live a better quality of life. We are committed to serving the local population with individualized care and education, enabling patients to breathe more easily each day.
