Left Lung Collapse
Hi,
My grandmother has got infection in her left lung due to which the lung has become unfunctional. She is currently on ventilator due to this. Broncoscopy was performed twice on her left lung. She is unconscious and has electrolyte disbalance along with lung infection. Please suggest methods to make her lung functional.
Regards,
Jay
