Delivering world class medical care
Cardiopulmonary physiotherapists work with patients in a variety of settings. They treat acute problems like asthma, acute chest infections and trauma; they are involved in the preparation and recovery of patients from major surgery; they also treat a wide range of chronic cardiac and respiratory conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis (CF) ,post-myocardial infarction (MI),CABG during post and pre operative period. They work with all ages from premature babies to older adults at the end of their life.
Physiotherapists are pioneering new management techniques for non-organic respiratory problems like hyperventilationand other stress-related disorders as well as leading the development of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation and non-invasive ventilation.
Cardiopulmonary physiotherapists use physical modalities to treat people affected with cardiopulmonary diseases. This may involve using manual techniques to clear infected mucus from a person’s chest, or using noninvasive ventilation to help a person breathe, or prescribing exercises to improve a patient’s functional exercise. Circuit training and Aerobic training plays an important role in recovery of the Patients and helpful in regaining the functional activities.
