Respiratory support is a set of specialized medical techniques and treatments used to improve respiratory function in patients who have difficulty breathing properly.
The Surgical Coordination and Scheduling Department is responsible for organizing and scheduling surgeries at the hospital.
Respiratory support can be of great benefit to patients with chronic lung diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary fibrosis, as well as to those who have suffered injuries to the respiratory system.
The primary objective of this service is to ensure proper planning and coordination of the surgical units, guaranteeing the availability of the resources needed to perform surgeries efficiently and safely.
Respiratory support techniques may include supplemental oxygen, noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV), invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).
To request surgery through this service, you must have a doctor’s referral and contact the hospital’s Surgical Coordination and Scheduling Department.
The need for respiratory support is determined through a medical evaluation that includes pulmonary function tests, blood gas analysis, and an assessment of the patient’s respiratory symptoms. A pulmonologist will determine whether the patient requires respiratory support and which technique is most appropriate in each case.
It is recommended that you schedule surgery at least two weeks in advance, although this may vary depending on the availability of operating rooms and specialists.
Respiratory support services are available at hospitals and clinics that specialize in respiratory diseases. These facilities have medical and nursing staff trained in respiratory support techniques, as well as specialized equipment to provide the appropriate treatment for each patient.
If you need to cancel or reschedule surgery, it is important to contact the Surgical Coordination and Scheduling Department immediately to explain the situation and arrange a new date.
