What is Pulmonary Medicine?
Pulmonary medicine (Gujarati: શ્વાસ નળી વિજ્ઞાન / Hindi: फेफड़ों का इलाज) deals with diseases that affect the lungs (ફેફસાં / फेफड़े) and respiratory system. It includes conditions like asthma (દમ / दमा), COPD (ક્રોનિક શ્વાસની બીમારી / क्रॉनिक ऑब्सट्रक्टिव पल्मोनरी डिज़ीज़), lung infections, tuberculosis (ક્ષય / तपेदिक), pneumonia (ફેફસાંમાં સંક્રમણ / फेफड़ों में संक्रमण), interstitial lung disease (ILD), and more.
At Shayona Hospital, we combine modern diagnostic tools, evidence-based treatments, and personalized care to deliver the best outcomes.
Critical Care Services
Critical care, also called Intensive Care Medicine, deals with patients who are critically ill and require close monitoring, ventilator support, or life-saving interventions. Our 6-bed ICU (Intensive Care Unit) and 7-bed HDU (High Dependency Unit) are equipped with world-class infrastructure, advanced ventilators, and round-the-clock trained intensivists.
