Best Pulmonary Hypertension Treatment in Mumbai

Holistic management of Pulmonary Hypertension

Pulmonary Hypertension is a disorder which often creeps up in unsuspecting patients with subtle symptoms like fatigue and breathlessness which are commonly mistaken for other heart or lung disorders and sometimes ignored altogether. This results in a number of patients presenting only in an advanced stage when therapy options remain limited.

We endeavour to bring about an early diagnosis for the patient, start appropriate management at the earliest and provide holistic care for the symptoms faced. A joint Cardiology and Pulmonology venture the clinic is a step towards getting a comprehensive evaluation up front and trouble shoot for solutions early.

Complex disorders require a team-based approach and multidisciplinary evaluation is crucial. Thereby your care may involve other team members like:

1. Radiologists
2. Physiotherapists
3. Intensive Care Experts
4. Rheumatologists
5. Hematologists
6. Cardiothoracic surgeons
7. Laboratory Medicine experts

8. Palliation experts

    

Diagnostic modalities

Diagnosis and risk assessments requires equipment matching global standards and a personalized diagnostic approach for every person. At our clinic you will have access to industry standards of all necessary tests which include (but not limited to) the following:

1. Right heart catheterization (The Gold Standard Diagnostic Tool)
2. Echocardiography
3. Advanced pulmonary function tests
4. Six-minute walk testing
5. Point of care biomarker tests (instant blood reports for critical values)
6. Advanced laboratory panels for systemic disease evaluation
7. Advanced CT rendering facilities

8. Polysomnography (sleep studies)

    

Therapies

It is vital to receive appropriate pharmacological, rehabilitative and surgical treatment at the appropriate time. With newer medical treatments available in India and the advent of heart-lung transplantation it is essential that a patient with pulmonary hypertension has access to all modalities of treatment under one roof. As a quaternary centre we are proud to provide these services under the aegis of the Pulmonary Hypertension clinic.

When to refer or visit

We are happy to see any patient with reported pulmonary hypertension on echocardiography or those with unexplained breathlessness despite therapy. Pulmonary hypertension at times masquerades as persistent fatigue or even early satiety or fullness and we will make every effort to make an early diagnosis and treat as may be appropriate. Patients with advanced disease on multiple modalities of treatment who wish to explore surgical alternatives to their condition may also visit for assessment for suitability.
