Our Client

The Division of Pediatric Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine

Ranked #20 nationwide by U.S. News and World Report in 2024, the mission of the UT Southwestern Pediatric Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine Division is to provide excellent, high value care to infants, children, and adolescents while advancing the field through research and innovation, as well as enhancing the education of future physicians.

The growing Division is comprised of 14 faculty members who play a pivotal role in advancing the Division’s clinical and scholarly programs focused on a wide range of respiratory illnesses, including disorders affecting respiratory control, the chest wall, respiratory muscles, airway, parenchyma, and cystic fibrosis. Faculty support 200 inpatient admissions annually, in addition to 750 inpatient consults per year in Dallas. Outpatient care is provided to more than 3,900 new patients across Dallas and Frisco/Plano sites each year. The Division is also distinguished by housing one of the largest pediatric sleep labs in the country, in addition to its renowned cystic fibrosis center, which operates as one of the highest volume centers nationally.

Clinical Services

The UT Southwestern Division of Pediatric Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine cares for an inpatient population consisting primarily of patients with cystic fibrosis, sleep disorders, chronic respiratory failure on mechanical ventilation, and patients with neuromuscular diseases hospitalized for an acute respiratory process. The clinical team also manages patients with high-risk asthma as well as less common pulmonary issues, such as primary ciliary dyskinesia, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), and idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis, as well as other interstitial lung diseases.

As core members of the Department of Pediatrics, the Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine faculty participate in specialized multidisciplinary and multidepartment clinics to support the management of patients with aerodigestive disorders, pulmonary sickle cell disease, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) disease, high-risk asthma, neuromuscular and chest wall related respiratory disease, and patients with chronic mechanical ventilatory needs. Recently, the Division spearheaded the launch of a long COVID pulmonary clinic, as well as an interventional bronchoscopy program. The Pulmonary Consult service provides approximately 50-60 consults per day to other divisions throughout the hospital, including the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, the Heart Center (the Cardiac Intensive Care and Acute Care Cardiology Units), and the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, and provides bronchoscopy services when indicated (including interventional).

Acute pulmonology care is primarily provided at the Children’s Medical Centers in Dallas and Plano, nationally known as a center of excellence in patient care, education, clinical and laboratory research, and patient advocacy. Outpatient services are facilitated at Children’s Health Specialty Center in Dallas and Cityville locations, including the Pulmonary Function Lab accommodating more than 1,000 visits per month. Additionally, the division provides care through its accredited center for patients with ciliary dyskinesia.

The Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis program, one of the largest in the country with over 300 pediatric patients, is co-directed by Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine leadership in collaboration with Pediatric Gastroenterology faculty. The center provides a comprehensive team approach to this complex and chronic disease. It is actively involved in many national multicenter trials, including clinical trials of new and innovative treatments. It also serves as a founding members of the CF Learning Network and participates in the national Success with Therapies Research Consortium.

With 24 beds divided between Dallas and Plano, the Division’s Sleep Program houses the largest pediatric sleep lab in the country, performing nearly 5,000 outpatient sleep studies per year and inpatient sleep studies as needed. The Sleep Center provides comprehensive care for all pediatric sleep disorders, including obstructive and central sleep apnea, narcolepsy, hypersomnia, insomnia, circadian rhythm disorders, and behavioral sleep disorders. The sleep program also participates in numerous multicenter research trials. Notably, after forming an institution-wide safe sleep task force, Children’s Medical Center achieved Cribs for Kids® gold-level hospital certification. UTSW / Children’s Health is the first major children’s hospital and fifth hospital in all of Texas to achieve gold certification.

In 2021, UTSW became the only accredited center by the Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) Foundation for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia in the North Texas region. Further, this clinic is the only site in North Texas able to perform nasal nitric oxide testing as a screening tool for the identification of patients with PCD.

Research

A wide variety of translational research activities are being carried out by faculty in the Division of Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine, with an emphasis on clinical and population projects. This includes multicenter drug trials with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Therapeutics Development Network, investigating modulator therapies in infants and young children, as well as the effects of modulator therapies on sleep and upper airway pathology. Additional research efforts focus on diagnostic and testing approaches to ensure that patients with advanced CF lung disease are carefully monitored within the guidelines of the CF Foundation. Beyond drug trials and qualitative research endeavors, the Division’s faculty members are spearheading quality improvement research, and the UTSW CF center has served as the lead site for multicenter QI endeavors which have influenced care across the CFF Care Network System. Faculty are also pursuing a research focus on access to care by investigating the impact of social determinants of health in chronic illness and outcomes. Some studies are focusing on asthma equity and support the creation of a consortium for unassigned albuterol.

Given the complexity of lung disease and pulmonary illnesses, faculty members are also investigating the link to underdiagnosed primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and education of primary care providers and referring specialists caring for this population. Additional and ongoing efforts support screening techniques for PCD, including participating in a multicenter study through Vanderbilt University IRB.

Within sleep research, faculty members lead ongoing research efforts related to sudden infant death syndrome and sleep positioning. The sleep program also participates in numerous multicenter research trials and IRB-approved studies related to improving Adolescent Suicidal ideation through a standardized brief group sleep intervention; healthy sleep for children with Down Syndrome; and evaluation of safety and efficacy of the hypoglossal nerve stimulator in adolescents with Down Syndrome and obstructive sleep apnea. Concurrent research projects are focused on the correlation between age and sleep breathing disorders in children with achondroplasia, as well as the incidence of sleep breathing disorders in patients suffering from Chiari malformation.

In addition, faculty within the Division has studied the harmful effects of e-cigarette use in adolescents. These findings on the EVALI cohort were published in the form of a case-series in 2020 in Pediatrics. Follow-up manuscripts have been submitted to Pediatrics on the clinical manifestations of EVALI before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Future planned studies include performing an analysis on health disparities with respect to EVALI in the Hispanic versus non- ispanic population, performing a cross-sectional study on vaping habits in adolescent e-cigarette users during the COVID-19 pandemic (CoVAPE study), and a cross-sectional cohort study on pulmonary function and vaping habits in three groups of adolescents: former e-cigarette users, current e-cigarette users, and never users.

With the development of a comprehensive high-risk asthma program, the Division has been able to undertake more research on near-fatal asthma and engage in drug studies related to severe asthma. Faculty members are also engaged in asthma pharmaceutical trials to achieve better outcomes for patients.

The Center for Pulmonary and Vascular Biology (PVB) in the Department of Pediatrics provides a programmatic research home for pediatric faculty and trainees pursuing basic or translational research in pulmonary biology and vascular biology. The Center’s mission is to expand the basic understanding of lung and vascular diseases, striving to gain new knowledge that will ultimately lead to new diagnostic, prophylactic, and therapeutic strategies.

The Center provides a valuable resource for investigative endeavors in pulmonary biology and vascular biology across the UT Southwestern campus. This is represented by active collaborations between PVB faculty and other UT Southwestern faculty in the Departments of Internal Medicine, Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics, and in the Peter O’Donnell Jr. School of Public Health, and by participation of PVB faculty in numerous training grants and graduate programs across the campus.

Dr. Philip Shaul, Director, Center for Pulmonary and Vascular Biology, and Dr. Lance Terada, Chief, Division of Adult Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine within the Department of Internal Medicine, co-direct an NIH T32 program to support postdoctoral research training in lung biology and disease at UT Southwestern. There are presently five faculty pursuing research in PVB labs and two additional pediatric faculty affiliated with the Center. Pediatric faculty from any clinical division with investigative pursuits in pulmonary, cardiovascular biology, or hematology are invited to join PVB. The Center will celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2025.

Education

The Division’s education mission is to impart knowledge, instill excitement for learning, and translate important clinical questions into focused areas of research. The Division provides educational opportunities for medical students, pediatric residents, pediatric pulmonary fellows, as well as junior faculty. The Division prides itself on an atmosphere that welcomes new ideas, change, and creativity for education.
