Pediatric Pulmonology at the Clínica de Miraflores
You can now have a Pediatric Pulmonolgy consultation at the Clínica de Miraflores, where you will find a clinical team specialized in the evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of children with complaints and pathologies concerning the respiratory system.
Pediatric Pulmonology is a specialty that diagnoses and treats children with pathologies - congenital or acquired - of the respiratory system, involving the trachea, bronchi, lungs and pleura. The most common pathologies are: recurrent wheezing; lung infections and their effects; airway or lung malformations; asthma; apnea; and other systemic diseases with clinical pulmonary expression.
At Joaquim Chaves Saúde, you can now have access to a Pediatric Pulmonology consultation, where you will find a specialized and qualified clinical team, and where you can also perform Respiratory Function Tests. This test is fundamental in the diagnosis and quantification of respiratory disease, through the functional assessment of the airways. They also help in assessing the response to treatments. The qualification and certification to carry out these exams in Pediatrics - in children in school age (from 7 to 17) and preschool age (from 3 to 6) - are extremely important, and make the difference in the correct and timely diagnosis, so important at these ages.
