Diagnosis and Treatment for Lung Diseases
Dr. Apoorv Krishna offers a thorough evaluation and treatment plan for a wide range of respiratory conditions such as asthma, COPD, bronchitis, tuberculosis, pneumonia, interstitial lung disease, and lung infections. The process begins with a detailed clinical history, physical examination, and relevant diagnostic tests such as chest X-rays, blood tests, and pulmonary function tests. Dr Apoorv Krishna emphasizes individualized treatment, where medications, lifestyle modifications, and preventive strategies are tailored to each patient’s unique needs. He ensures that patients understand their diagnosis and actively participate in their treatment plans. Follow-ups are closely monitored to assess progress, adjust medications, and address any complications promptly. Patient education is central to care, enabling long-term control and prevention of disease progression.
Pulmonary Function Testing
Pulmonary Function Testing (PFT) is a vital tool for diagnosing and monitoring lung diseases. Dr. Apoorv Krishna provides comprehensive PFT services, including spirometry, lung volume measurement, and diffusion capacity analysis. These tests help measure how well your lungs are working—how much air they can hold, how quickly air moves in and out, and how efficiently oxygen is transferred into the blood. PFT is used in conditions like asthma, COPD, interstitial lung disease, and occupational lung disorders. The tests are non-invasive, quick, and provide critical information to guide treatment. Dr Apoorv Krishna ensures the tests are performed under professional supervision with accurate interpretation, making them an essential part of personalized lung care.
Sleep Study Interpretation and Sleep Apnea Management
Sleep disorders, especially Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), can severely affect daily functioning and long-term health. Dr. Apoorv Krishna offers expert evaluation and management of sleep-related breathing disorders. Patients presenting with symptoms like loud snoring, daytime sleepiness, or unrefreshing sleep are evaluated clinically and advised for an overnight sleep study (polysomnography). Based on the findings, personalized treatment is initiated, often involving CPAP therapy, weight management, and lifestyle modification. Dr Apoorv Krishna also helps patients select the right equipment and ensures long-term adherence. With early intervention and proper management, patients experience improved sleep quality, energy levels, and reduced risk of heart disease, hypertension, and metabolic issues.
Inpatient & Outpatient Pulmonary Care
Dr Apoorv Krishna offers both inpatient and outpatient pulmonary services. Outpatient care includes consultations for chronic respiratory symptoms, follow-ups for lung conditions, and preventive screenings. Inpatient care is offered for patients who need hospital admission due to severe infections, respiratory distress, or complications like pneumothorax or pleural effusion. Dr Apoorv Krishna collaborates closely with other specialists to ensure a holistic approach, especially for patients with multiple coexisting conditions. Care plans are regularly updated based on patient response, ensuring a seamless transition between hospital care and home recovery. This continuity of care significantly improves outcomes for patients with both acute and chronic lung issues.
