About the Adult Airway Clinic
At the UPMC Adult Airway Clinic, we realize the importance of maintaining a strong and healthy breath and are dedicated to the evaluation, treatment, and improvement of all types of adult upper airway disorders, including:
- disorders of the upper airway (larynx, subglottis, proximal trachea)
- tracheotomy-dependent conditions
We also make educating the patient and family members a key aspect of our patient care concept. Our experts provide extensive details about conditions and treatment plans to help put the patient and family members at ease.
The Adult Airway Clinic is part of UPMC’s Department of Otolaryngology — which is consistently ranked among the top five otolaryngology departments in the United States by U.S. News & World Report.
