Respiratory and Respirology Research Areas and Disciplines | |
Current research into various lung diseases includes asthma, cystic fibrosis, pneumonia, and bronchitis. The role of physiological evaluation in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory illnesses, and how to improve this, is also examined.
Sleep apnea is another hot topic, as well as pediatric apnea and sudden infant death syndrome. Research is ongoing into how to manage sleep apnea either via drugs or non-medical methodologies.
Molecular research into respiratory illnesses focuses on the roles of biomarkers in diseases such as lung cancer, gene biotherapy, sputum methodology, and the biochemistry of lipids.
Lung cancer research is growing due to the lessening stigma attached to people with such a disease. Studies into early detection of the disease, treatment, and why it occurs in non-smokers is ongoing. Lung transplantation research looks at increasing the odds of successful surgery, and also the development of immunosuppressant drugs.
There is research into improving the tools used to diagnose respirological diseases, such as the interpretation of radiological films. New drugs are also being researched as well as improvements in current drug regimes, such as improving the effectiveness of inhaled steroids for asthma.
