How we selected these hospitals

How to Select the Best Hospital for Pulmonary Fibrosis in Bengaluru, India?
Choosing the right hospital for pulmonary fibrosis is one of the most important decisions in your treatment journey. A few factors are worth weighing before you decide:
International Accreditation
Look for a hospital with international accreditation such as JCI or NABH — see the accreditation badges shown for each hospital below.
Specialization
Check that the hospital's listed specialties actually include liver transplant & hpb rather than only general care.
Capacity and Track Record
Bed count and year established (shown below for each hospital) are a reasonable proxy for scale and operating experience.
Transparent Costs
Ask for an itemised, all-inclusive estimate — hospital charges, room category and stay — before you travel. Our cost calculator (linked below) gives a starting estimate.
Understanding Pulmonary Fibrosis
Pulmonary fibrosis treatment in India and the UAE offers internationally accredited antifibrotic therapy, multidisciplinary ILD (interstitial lung disease) programs, and comprehensive lung transplant evaluation — at a fraction of Western costs.
Clinical Overview
- Pulmonary fibrosis — most critically in its idiopathic form (IPF) — is a progressive, irreversible scarring of lung parenchyma driven by aberrant epithelial injury-repair cycles, fibroblast proliferation, and excess extracellular matrix deposition.
- As fibrosis advances, alveolar architecture is destroyed, gas exchange efficiency falls, and patients develop exertional hypoxemia, a dry non-productive cough, and progressively restrictive ventilatory physiology.
- Median survival from diagnosis without treatment is historically 3–5 years, though disease trajectory varies considerably — a minority follow a slowly progressive course, while others experience acute exacerbations that carry a 50–80% in-hospital mortality.
Who is a Candidate?
- CONFIRMED IPF DIAGNOSIS: Multidisciplinary ILD board consensus based on HRCT UIP pattern (± surgical lung biopsy via VATS) after exclusion of secondary causes (connective tissue disease, drug toxicity, hypersensitivity pneumonitis)
- ANTIFIBROTIC THERAPY CANDIDATES: FVC ≥50% predicted, DLCO ≥30% predicted, confirmed UIP/probable UIP on HRCT, NYHA/MRC dyspnea grade II–III, absence of advanced hepatic impairment (nintedanib) or severe photosensitivity contraindication (pirfenidone)
- TRANSPLANT EVALUATION CANDIDATES: Progressive disease despite ≥6 months of antifibrotic therapy, FVC <80% predicted with ≥10% relative decline over 12 months, DLCO <40% predicted, 6-minute walk test desaturation below SpO₂ 88%, or acute exacerbation requiring hospitalization
- REQUIRED DIAGNOSTIC WORKUP BEFORE TRAVEL: HRCT chest (thin-slice ≤1.5 mm), full pulmonary function tests (spirometry, plethysmography, DLCO), 6-minute walk test with oximetry, echocardiography (to assess pulmonary hypertension — a key modifier of transplant candidacy), CT pulmonary angiography or V/Q scan (to exclude chronic thromboembolic disease), standard metabolic panel, LFTs, renal function, and ANA/RF/anti-CCP/anti-Scl70 autoimmune panel

Treatment Options & Approaches
- ANTIFIBROTIC PHARMACOTHERAPY Nintedanib (Ofev®): A triple tyrosine kinase inhibitor administered orally at 150 mg twice daily with food.
- It inhibits PDGFR-α/β, FGFR-1/2/3, and VEGFR-1/2/3 — receptors that mediate fibroblast proliferation, differentiation, and migration.
- In the INPULSIS trials, nintedanib reduced annual FVC decline by 50% (approximately 50 mL/year vs. 200 mL/year on placebo).
Recovery
- PHASE 1 — PRE-ARRIVAL COORDINATION (2–4 weeks before travel) GAF Healthcare's medical coordinators review all existing diagnostic records (HRCT, PFTs, bronchoscopy/biopsy reports, echocardiography) via a secure digital portal.
- The in-house medical team prepares a provisional treatment pathway — antifibrotic initiation vs. transplant evaluation — and selects the appropriate partner center.
- The patient receives a pre-travel checklist specifying required investigations to be completed at home to avoid duplication and unnecessary cost. e-Medical visa (India) or UAE entry visa documentation is prepared in parallel.
Risks to be aware of
- Pulmonary fibrosis treatment carries a distinct risk profile at each stage of the care pathway, and patients must receive a fully transparent risk discussion before travel.
Why GAF Healthcare
- GAF Healthcare provides an integrated medical tourism support infrastructure that addresses every non-clinical barrier to treatment access for international patients.
