Inpatient Department/Respiratory ICU
The Inpatient Department (IPD) at Thorat Hospital – Lung Care and Advanced Sonography Centre is designed to provide specialized care for patients suffering from severe respiratory conditions. Equipped with a Respiratory ICU, our facility offers a comprehensive approach to treating critical lung diseases, providing round-the-clock medical attention with the latest technologies to ensure optimal care for respiratory patients.
Inpatient respiratory care is provided to patients who require intensive monitoring, treatment, and support due to severe respiratory conditions such as pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations, and other serious lung diseases. The Respiratory ICU is specifically designed for patients in need of critical respiratory support and continuous monitoring.
Key Features of Our Respiratory ICU:
BiPAP (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure):
- BiPAP therapy is a non-invasive ventilation method used to support breathing in patients with obstructive sleep apnea, COPD, or other respiratory conditions. It provides two levels of air pressure: higher pressure during inhalation to help expand the lungs and lower pressure during exhalation to allow the patient to breathe out more easily.
- Benefits: BiPAP helps reduce the need for invasive intubation, improves oxygenation, decreases the work of breathing, and alleviates symptoms of respiratory distress.
Ventilator Support:
- In more severe cases, patients who are unable to breathe independently may require mechanical ventilation. A ventilator helps deliver oxygen directly to the lungs and removes carbon dioxide, supporting patients during critical episodes of respiratory failure.
- Benefits: Mechanical ventilators provide life-saving assistance, especially in cases of acute respiratory failure, ARDS, and severe COPD, by ensuring proper oxygenation and ventilation until the patient’s lungs recover.
Comprehensive Monitoring and Support:
- Our Respiratory ICU offers continuous monitoring of vital signs, oxygen levels, and lung function. This allows our medical team to provide immediate intervention as necessary to stabilize the patient’s condition.
- Benefits: Continuous care and prompt response to changes in the patient’s status can significantly improve outcomes in critical respiratory conditions.
Specialized Medical Team:
- The Respiratory ICU is staffed by a highly trained team of pulmonologists, critical care specialists, nurses, and respiratory therapists who are experts in managing complex respiratory illnesses.
- Benefits: With their specialized knowledge and experience, our medical team ensures that patients receive the highest standard of care tailored to their individual needs.
