Pneumology

The group’s basic and clinical research activity, above all, surrounds the fields of inflammation and repair, respiratory insufficiency and tissue hypoxia, and these fields complement one another and are connected through the study of conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, infections, transplants, pulmonary hypertension or sleep-related breathing disorders.

The group has an experimental research laboratory and a clinical research and clinical trial unit. It is made up of professionals from different specialties (pulmonologists, biologists, nurses, laboratory technicians, physiotherapists etc.). This multidisciplinary team provides an added value to the group and guarantees the existence of the critical mass necessary to carry out scientific projects.

Our group is a node that belongs to the CIBERES network (CIBER for respiratory diseases) and also works in collaboration with groups of the highest national and international prestige.

Research lines

COPD and pleural diseases.

In the field of COPD, the main research lines have centred on genetic aspects of the disease, with special emphasis on patents with emphysema due to a-1 antitrypsin deficit and exacerbation of COPD. Moreover, a research line has been initiated based on the study of inflammation in lung tissue by molecular biology techniques.

IP: Jaume Ferrer Sancho

Cystic fibrosis and primary immunodeficiencies.

The Group has a dedicated outpatient care center for primary immunodeficiency and is the referral center for this disease. There is also a Catalonian Referral Unit for Cystic Fibrosis, which maintains the Spanish registry of bronchiectasis and patients with a1-antitrypsin deficit. Moreover, the team is considered to be expert in the control of tuberculous disease.

IP: Cystic fibrosis and primary immunodeficiencies.

Lung transplantation and pulmonary hypertension.

The Group performed the first successful lung transplantation in Spain. Currently, it is one of the hospitals where the largest number of lung transplants are carried out annually, which places it among the leading centers in Europe and the world for this activity.

IP: Antonio Román Broto

Paediatric respiratory diseases.

The Paediatric Pulmonology and Cystic Fibrosis Unit is a Spanish referral center for paediatric lung transplantation and pulmonary hypertension and a Catalonia referral center for children with cystic fibrosis, including the neonatal screening program. The main lines of research include the study of inflammation and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthma in infants and older children, the determination of reference values for spirometry in children and the study of lung function in children with sequelae of neonatal respiratory disease (bronchopulmonary dysplasia). The Unit has established a new line of study of ciliary motility and ultrastructure in primary ciliary dyskinesia to allow further study of this rare disease.
