Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Dr. Upendra provides diagnostic tests, such as spirometry, to measure lung function, and offers treatments to manage symptoms, which include medications like bronchodilators and corticosteroids, oxygen therapy, and lifestyle counseling on smoking cessation.
Asthma Diagnosis and Management
Dr. Upendra diagnoses asthma through lung function tests and provides treatment through inhalers (both relievers and preventers), medications to reduce airway inflammation, and advice on lifestyle modifications to avoid triggers like allergens or pollutants.
Pulmonary Function Tests
Dr. Upendra uses spirometry and other tests to measure lung capacity and function. PFT results help tailor specific treatment plans for conditions like asthma, COPD, and interstitial lung disease.
Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) Treatment
Dr. Upendra specializes in diagnosing ILD through imaging tests like high-resolution CT scans and pulmonary function tests. Treatment includes medications such as corticosteroids and antifibrotic agents, as well as rehabilitation programs to improve lung function and quality of life.
Sleep Apnea and Sleep Disorder Treatment
Dr. Upendra provides sleep studies (polysomnography) to diagnose sleep apnea and other disorders. Treatments include lifestyle changes, Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy, and other airway management techniques.
Lung Infections and Pneumonia Treatment
Dr. Upendra diagnoses lung infections using chest X-rays, blood tests, and sputum cultures. Treatments may involve antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungal medications, along with supportive care like oxygen therapy for severe cases.
Tuberculosis (TB) Diagnosis and Treatment
Dr. Upendra provides TB diagnosis through skin tests, blood tests, and chest X-rays. Treatment typically involves a long-term antibiotic regimen, with careful monitoring to prevent resistance and ensure full recovery.
Lung Cancer Diagnosis and Management
Dr. Upendra can assist in diagnosing lung cancer through imaging tests (CT scans, MRIs), biopsies, and bronchoscopy. He works closely with oncologists to develop treatment plans, which may include surgery, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies.
Critical Care and Respiratory Failure Management
In cases of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or severe respiratory failure, Dr. Upendra provides critical care, including advanced ventilatory support, management of mechanical ventilation, and other life-saving interventions.
EBUS
Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) is a minimally invasive procedure used in pulmonology to diagnose lung conditions such as lung cancer, sarcoidosis, and other lung-related diseases. By combining bronchoscopy with ultrasound, it allows for the detailed examination of the airways, lungs, and surrounding areas.
