Respiratory Treatment
Respiratory treatment refers to medical interventions aimed at improving breathing and managing conditions affecting the lungs and airways. Common treatments include medications like bronchodilators and corticosteroids, which help open airways and reduce inflammation. Other methods may involve oxygen therapy, inhalers, and nebulizers to deliver medication directly to the lungs.
In addition to medications, respiratory treatment can include physical therapies such as chest physiotherapy, which helps clear mucus from the lungs. Patients with chronic conditions like asthma or COPD may also benefit from lifestyle changes, including smoking cessation and pulmonary rehabilitation programs to enhance lung function and overall health.
