Prof. Univ. Habilitat Dr. Paraschiva Postolache: “Pulmonary rehabilitation is already a necessity in the global pandemic context.”

The importance of Pulmonary Rehabilitation is vital in the current global pandemic context. The pandemic has revealed the vulnerabilities of the global medical, legal, and social systems, generating not only stress but also other behaviors related to mental health.

Why is the importance of investments in research and rehabilitation  infrastructure necessary?

“At a simple glance, the pandemic has caused stress and behaviors associated with mental health issues.

Breathing problems are already an international concern considering pollution, the previous pandemic, tuberculosis, and others that practically require a different approach and research and hospital infrastructure. I would emphasize that a national health education would be necessary and should be approached responsibly by each individual.” Prof. Univ. Dr. Paraschiva Postolache.

The specialized literature in the field of pulmonary rehabilitation is extremely well-documented, which I have contributed to in my career, so that this field is accessible to doctors and patients.
