Our Respiratory Support Department provides specialized care for respiratory diseases and lung disorders, as well as respiratory therapy. Our team of specialists in pulmonology and respiratory care offers a wide range of services, including diagnosis, treatment, and pulmonary rehabilitation.
Respiratory support is a set of medical techniques and treatments designed to improve respiratory function in patients who have difficulty breathing properly.
Respiratory support is used in cases of chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as well as in emergency or postoperative situations that require assistance with breathing.
The techniques used in respiratory support include supplemental oxygen administration, noninvasive mechanical ventilation, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), and bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP).
Respiratory support can benefit patients of all ages who have difficulty breathing, whether due to a chronic illness, an injury, or surgery. It can also be helpful for those who require palliative care or intensive care.
Respiratory support services are available at hospitals, clinics, and specialized respiratory care centers. At Hospital Angeles Xalapa, we have a highly trained medical team and state-of-the-art technology to provide comprehensive and personalized care.
