PCCS is the first practice in Houston to offer Bronchial ThermoplastyWe are proud to announce that Pulmonary Critical Care and Sleep Medicine Consultants is the first practice in the Houston area to offer Bronchial Thermoplasty.

Bronchial Thermoplasty is a non-drug treatment for severe persistent asthma in patients 18 years and older whose asthma is not well controlled with inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting beta-agonists.

Bronchial Thermoplasty consists of an outpatient procedure that reduces excessive airway smooth muscle decreasing the ability of the airways to constrict and narrow during an asthma attack.
