Bronchial Thermoplasty
This treatment is now available in Australia. We have been performing Bronchial Thermoplasty in patients with severe refractory asthma since early 2014. If you are interested, please contact us. You will be reviewed by one of our Interventional Pulmonologists, as well as one of our Asthma experts to help determine if you are suitable for this treatment.
How does it work?
This is a novel treatment for severe, persistent asthma that remains poorly controlled despite optimal medication therapy. It involves day procedures over three days where thermal energy is delivered to the airways to reduce excessive smooth muscle. The reduction in smooth muscle can significantly improve the symptoms of people with asthma.
