Taking proactive steps is central to long-term health. Dr. David Rosenbaum offers a range of key preventive screenings and services designed to provide crucial insights into your health and support your well-being:

• Bronchoscopy: For early detection and management of lung conditions, a bronchoscopy allows doctors to examine your airways directly and obtain tissue samples for testing, helping prevent the progression of diseases like lung cancer.
• Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP): CPAP is a proactive treatment for sleep apnea, helping to restore normal breathing patterns during sleep and promoting better health.
• Sleep Study: A sleep study is a valuable tool for early detection of sleep apnea, a condition that can negatively affect lung function and increase the risk of other health problems.
• Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving technique that can help restore breathing and blood circulation in emergency situations, potentially preventing death or lasting brain damage.
• Swan-Ganz Interpretation: A Swan-Ganz catheter helps your doctor precisely measure blood pressure and flow in your heart and lungs, providing crucial information for diagnosing and managing severe lung conditions.
• Airway Surgery: To maintain optimal lung health, airway surgery can be used to address structural issues that may be causing breathing difficulties or contributing to chronic conditions.
• Stellate Ganglion Block: As a potential treatment option, a stellate ganglion block might help reduce nerve-related pain that may impact breathing in certain cases.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Pulmonary care with Dr. David Rosenbaum:

What is a Pulmonologist?

A pulmonologist is a medical specialist who diagnoses and treats diseases of the respiratory system, including the lungs, airways, and breathing muscles. They are experts in a wide range of conditions, from asthma and COPD to lung cancer and sleep apnea.

I have a long history of smoking. Should I be screened for lung cancer?

Lung cancer screening with a low-dose CT scan is recommended for high-risk individuals, often those with a history of smoking and a certain age. Early detection is crucial, as lung cancer is most treatable when caught early. Please schedule a consultation with Dr. Rosenbaum to discuss your specific eligibility.

What is pulmonary rehabilitation?

Pulmonary rehabilitation is a medically supervised program of exercise and education designed to help people with chronic lung disease breathe better, increase strength and stamina, and improve their overall quality of life.

What is a pulmonary function test (PFT)?

A pulmonary function test (PFT) is a series of breathing tests that measure lung function, similar to an EKG for your lungs. Dr. Rosenbaum uses PFTs to diagnose conditions like asthma and COPD, assess their severity, and monitor how well treatments are working.

What is bronchiectasis?

Bronchiectasis is a chronic condition where the airways in the lungs become permanently widened and damaged, leading to a buildup of mucus and recurrent infections. Management focuses on preventing infections and clearing mucus from the airways to preserve lung function.

How can I prevent my asthma or COPD from getting worse?

Preventing asthma or COPD from worsening is a partnership between you and Dr. Rosenbaum. Key strategies include properly using your inhalers, avoiding triggers like smoke and pollen, getting recommended vaccinations, and having a clear action plan for flare-ups.

What is a pleural effusion?

A pleural effusion is an abnormal buildup of fluid between the lungs and chest wall. Dr. Rosenbaum can perform a thoracentesis to drain and test the fluid, helping determine the underlying cause, which can range from heart failure to infection.

What is a CPAP machine?

A CPAP machine is the most effective treatment for sleep apnea. It's a small, quiet machine that delivers a gentle stream of air through a mask to keep your airway open during sleep, preventing dangerous drops in oxygen and dramatically improving sleep quality.
