PCSI offers new technology that promises to fight lung cancer in a new way.

Used to view the inside of the lungs and obtain a tissue sample for biopsy, the goal of Auris Health’s Monarchβ„’ Platform is to enable earlier and more-accurate diagnosis of small and hard-to-reach nodules in the periphery of the lung.

The technology integrates the latest advancements in robotics, software, data science, and endoscopy (the use of small cameras and tools to enter the body through its natural openings). Dr. Wellikoff is among the first pulmonologists in the United States to utilize the platform, which was recently cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The Best Ways To Get Rid Of Your Afternoon Fatigue

You went to bed early, had a pretty good sleep, and even β€” gasp! β€” didn’t feel the need for a second cup of coffee this morning. But come 3 p.m., all you can think about is the fact that you’re sitting at your desk instead of lying in your bed. When a case of midday exhaustion hits you harder than that kiss in the beginning of The L Word: Generation Q Season 2, curing your afternoon fatigue becomes the most important thing on your to-do list.

Exercise Intolerance or Intolerant of Exercise?
With Dr. Denzil Seedial

Breathe Better. Sleep Better. Live Better.

What if time isn’t the only barrier between you and exercising?
Endless polls and studies cite the number one reason Americans give for not exercising is lack of time. The downtime of quarantine seems like the perfect opportunity to bring about ambitious goals of rekindling old exercise routines, or even starting new ones, especially since exercise is hailed as a powerful remedy to pandemic stress. But what if after giving neighborhood power walks a shot you realize it’s not just the time factor that’s holding you back.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report only about half (53.3%) of adults over the age of 18 meet the physical activity guidelines for aerobic physical activity despite the overwhelming supportive research proving exercise is fundamentally essential for vitality.

Exercise Intolerance

For some people, exercise intolerance is the underlying barrier that makes exercising seem impossible. The good news? Exercise intolerance doesn’t make exercise impossible, but it does need to be addressed to successfully incorporate something as vital as exercise into your lifestyle.

β€œExercise intolerance is the inability to do things that you could have done prior to having an event,” Dr. Denzil Seedial, a critical care medicine/pulmonologist at Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Disorders Institute of South Florida explains. For example, a major accident, certain illnesses, or a COVID-19 or respiratory tract infection would be considered an event. β€œIt’s any change from baseline.”

Diagnosing the root cause of exercise intolerance may require a little more investigation if no events or obvious life changes can be identified.

β€œIf you continue to be short of breath it’s usually cardiac or pulmonary related. If after slowly beginning to exercise a patient reports they’re finding themself more short of breath than the average person, and we don’t think it’s from deconditioning, then further diagnostic testing like a chest x-ray or a pulmonary function test are used to look for things like asthma, exercise induced asthma, or COPD,” adds Dr. Seedial. If those are unremarkable then further testing may be indicated like a cardiopulmonary exercise stress test.
