Dr. Nayan Mani Deka Podcast

In this episode of the Doctor Saab Podcast, host Bidisha Ghosh sits down with consultant pediatrician, asthma-allergy specialist, and immunotherapist Dr. Nayan Mani Deka (Pratiksha Rainbow Hospital, Guwahati) to explore pediatric pulmonology and immunology.

Dr. Deka discusses the intricacies of neonatal resuscitation, PICU management, and treating complex pediatric infectious conditions like empyema and scrub typhus. He breaks down how to differentiate between simple upper respiratory infections and chronic atopic conditions like asthma, allergic rhinitis, and food hypersensitivities.

The conversation deconstructs common fears surrounding inhalation therapy, explains the role of diagnostic tools like skin-prick testing and spirometry, and highlights how long-term allergen immunotherapy can successfully modify disease progression and offer sustained relief for young patients.
