Sir H. N. Reliance Foundation Hospital Opens Advanced Lung Disease Clinic in Mumbai

The clinic has been established as a specialised centre for patients with severe pulmonary ailments and long-term respiratory disorders.

Sir H. N. Reliance Foundation Hospital, Mumbai, has launched an Advanced Lung Disease Clinic dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of rare and complex pulmonary conditions.

The facility combines advanced diagnostics, interventional pulmonology, and lung transplant capabilities, aiming to offer patients a comprehensive and personalised treatment pathway.

The clinic has been established as a specialised centre for patients with severe pulmonary ailments and long-term respiratory disorders.

The launch aligns with growing concerns over India’s rising respiratory disease burden. As per The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, India accounts for approximately 33 million asthma patients and 55 million individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), making up over 10% of the global respiratory disease load.

The newly inaugurated clinic focuses on managing advanced pulmonary conditions, including severe interstitial lung disease (ILD), end-stage COPD and emphysema, severe treatment-resistant asthma, occupational and environmental lung disorders, and progressive lung failure requiring ventilatory or ECMO support.

The clinic is equipped with interventional pulmonology technologies such as high-precision bronchoscopy, cryotherapy, and endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)- guided biopsies. It also offers airway stenting and personalised rehabilitation services, including pulmonary rehabilitation, oxygen therapy, and lifestyle support tailored to each patient's condition.

The Advanced Lung Disease Clinic aims to address existing treatment gaps in managing progressive lung disorders through integrated and multidisciplinary care approaches.
