Success Story of a Children's Hospital
Stephanie
In late spring Stephanie started to experience difficulty breathing, especially at night.
The Pulmonary, Allergy, Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis Center at Miller Children’s Hospital offers “total pulmonary care,” meaning board-certified specialists in pulmonary, asthma, allergy and immunology, work together to cover the entire pediatric respiratory spectrum. Miller Children’s Pulmonary, Allergy, Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis Center offers fully integrated, state-of-the-art, respiratory care for children from birth to 21 years with conditions involving the lungs and respiratory system such as, asthma, lung disease of premature infants, cystic fibrosis, allergies and sleep disorders. The Pulmonary, Allergy, Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis Center at Miller Children’s treats children nationally and internationally.
Miller Children’s offers specialized programs in asthma, allergy, immunology, and cystic fibrosis (CF), where children receive a comprehensive care plan that will manage their symptoms from diagnosis to treatment by a specialized care team. Miller Children’s is a leader in advanced pediatric respiratory care technology, such as pulmonary function testing for infants, lung function testing, exercise cardio-metabolic-pulmonary testing, allergy skin testing, fiber-optic bronchoscopy procedures, sleep studies and endoscopic examinations.
