Clinical focus

Dr. Kabadayı’s work is centered on patients with respiratory and critical care needs. Within pulmonary medicine, his areas of expertise include the management of sepsis and the delivery of intensive care treatment for patients whose condition requires close monitoring and organ support. Mechanical ventilation is a central part of this work, and he is trained in the ventilatory support of patients who cannot breathe adequately on their own. Advanced life support is also among his listed areas of expertise.

Alongside acute and intensive care, Dr. Kabadayı’s clinical interests include palliative care. This involves attention to symptom control and to care planning for patients with serious or advanced illness, discussed together with the patient and family where appropriate. Decisions about intensive care treatment, ventilatory support and palliative care planning are made on an individual basis after clinical assessment, and the options considered will depend on the patient’s condition and history.

How Dr. Kabadayı works with international patients

Dr. Kabadayı consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. Before a visit, the Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, for example CT, X-ray, MRI or ultrasound reports, laboratory and pathology results, operative notes and discharge summaries, and arranges appointments and organizes the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing imaging and previous treatments, a clinical examination and a discussion of the options. Video consultation is available for international patients, which may be used for an initial discussion or for reviewing existing reports before deciding whether an in-person assessment in İstanbul is needed. For patients who require intensive care treatment, the planning of care will be guided by the clinical findings at the time of assessment.
