Divisions & Faculty

The Division of Pulmonology provides consultative and attending physician services to patients from birth through adolescence with acute and chronic respiratory diseases. A major focus of the Pulmonology division involves the care and management of technology-dependent children, including those on ventilators, with tracheotomy tubes, supplemental oxygen, and apnea-bradycardia monitors. Patients with asthma, cystic fibrosis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, pneumonias and interstitial lung diseases are also evaluated and managed.

Inpatient consultation services are provided twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week at CHKD. An educational consultant is available in our clinics to meet each patient.
