Respiratory diseases
Respiratory diseases cover a wide range of conditions that affect breathing and daily quality of life. Whether it’s sleep apnea, chronic respiratory failure, or bronchial diseases such as asthma and COPD, each one requires an accurate diagnosis and tailored care. Discover below the main respiratory diseases and their specific characteristics.
Each respiratory disease presents specific symptoms that are important to recognize early. Chronic fatigue, shortness of breath, or sleep disturbances can be signs not to overlook. An accurate diagnosis, often made by a pulmonologist, helps determine the most suitable treatment: a CPAP device for sleep apnea, oxygen therapy for respiratory failure, or medication for asthma and COPD.
