The Respiratory Unit has recently evolved significantly and undergone a rapid growth and modernization. The Unit consists of highly equipped pulmonary function laboratory, sleep centre, allergy service, and invasive interventional bronochology unit. It is closely linked with general medicine and integrated with thoracic surgery. The Unit deals with all aspects of respiratory medicine including respiratory emergency and intensive care, and covers wide range of services such as interventional bronchoscopy, pulmonary function, allergy, TB surveillance and contact clinic, airway diseases, lung cancer and oncology, sleep services and assisted ventilation service. We are very actively involved in research work and have produced a wealth of work published nationally and internationally. Academically we have organized and contributed to many national and international conferences and symposia. Our aim is to be one of the largest Unit of respiratory medicine in the Kingdom in terms of facilities and distinguished members pioneers in pulmonary medicine.
