Obstructive Airway Disease Programme
Overview
Obstructive airway diseases are a group of lung conditions that make it difficult to breathe, especially when trying to exhale. These conditions can significantly impact the quality of life, leading to breathlessness, fatigue, and increased risk of complications. At AKUH, we offer a comprehensive Obstructive Airway Disease Programme designed to provide expert care, diagnosis, and management for patients suffering from these conditions.
Conditions We Treat
We specialise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of obstructive airway diseases, including:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): A progressive lung disease that makes it difficult to breathe.
Asthma: A chronic inflammatory disease of the airways that can cause wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath.
Bronchiectasis: A condition where the airways become widened and damaged, leading to frequent infections and mucus buildup.
Cystic fibrosis: A genetic disorder that affects the lungs and other organs.
