Respiratory Failure Critical Care Management

Respiratory Failure Critical Care Management

When lung function deteriorates rapidly or when pleural space complications threaten the ability to breathe, timely intervention is not optional—it is life-saving. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Kishan Srikanth, a highly acclaimed lung specialist in Hyderabad, patients receive uncompromising, evidence-based care during the most critical moments of their health journey. Facing an emergency ICU admission or struggling with fluid buildup in the lungs, Dr. Srikanth’s integrated approach combines clinical vigilance, technological expertise, and human-centered care.

Conditions Treated with Precision

When your lungs are under pressure, so is your life. Conditions affecting the pleural space—the thin layer surrounding your lungs—can compromise every breath you take. At our center of excellence in pulmonary and critical care, we specialize in identifying and managing these conditions with urgency and accuracy. As a patient, you deserve to know what’s happening within your chest—and how it can be treated.

01. Critical Care for Respiratory Emergencies

For patients facing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), respiratory failure, or septic shock, timely and decisive intervention is vital. Dr. Srikanth brings ICU-grade decision-making and experience to the bedside as one of the best lung specialists in Hyderabad for critical pulmonary care.
He collaborates closely with multidisciplinary teams, ensuring:
  • Advanced mechanical ventilation strategies
  • Non-invasive ventilatory support (CPAP/BiPAP)
  • Sepsis control and pulmonary source management
  • Lung-protective protocols for patients with severe hypoxia
His approach is evidence-based, compassionate, and tailored to deliver the best outcomes under challenging clinical conditions.

02. Massive Hemoptysis Management

Rapid Airway Control for Life-Threatening Lung Bleeds Massive hemoptysis is a medical emergency demanding swift identification and airway protection. Dr. Kishan Srikanth, a leading Lung Specialist in Hyderabad, applies advanced bronchoscopic techniques to stabilize and manage bleeding with precision.
  • Bronchoscopic Localization – Real-time identification of bleeding sites for targeted control.
  • Endobronchial Blockers – Lung isolation to prevent airway flooding and maintain oxygenation.
  • Interventional Collaboration – Seamless coordination with radiology for bronchial artery embolization when indicated.
  • Video Bronchoscopy-Guided Intubation – Airway secured under direct visualization in critical cases.
As a trusted Interventional Pulmonologist in Hyderabad, Dr. Srikanth ensures fast, effective, and life-saving intervention when every moment counts.

03. Video Bronchoscopy-Guided Intubation

When conventional intubation becomes difficult due to airway collapse, facial trauma, or anatomical anomalies, Dr. Srikanth performs video bronchoscopy-guided intubation—a life-saving procedure that allows visualization of the airway in real time.
This advanced technique is crucial in:
  • Anticipated or known difficult airways
  • Critically ill patients with poor oxygen reserves
  • Trauma, malignancies, or post-surgical anatomical challenges
As a leading interventional pulmonologist in Hyderabad, Dr. Srikanth leverages this tool for intubation and ongoing airway clearance and bronchoalveolar diagnostics in ICU patients.
