Patients of the Division of Pulmonology are treated in the ward, at the general pulmonology clinic and in different special clinics. Special clinics are devoted to tumors, pulmonary hypertension, interstitial and rare lung diseases, cystic fibrosis (CF), lung transplantation and pulmonary infection. The inpatient clinic is divided into General Pulmonology, the Respiratory Care Unit (RCU) and the Sleep Lab.
The uniqueness and the added value of our division are the result of the symbiosis between patient care, research and education. The division is jointly operated by the Medical University of Graz and the Styrian Hospital Association (KAGes). This interdisciplinary cooperation between both providers at the University Hospital Graz site is also reflected on our website. More information on patient care can be found at the University Hospital Graz website.
The Department of Pulmonology at the Medical University of Graz has been appointed by the Federal Ministry of Social Affairs, Health, Care and Consumer Protection (BMSGPK) as a center of expertise for rare lung diseases with a focus on pulmonary arterial hypertension (pulmonary hypertension).
