The estimated prevalence of Asthma in the adult Indian population is two percent, and about 1-2 million Indian adults are estimated to suffer from severe asthma. To address the growing need for the treatment of asthma patients, Vashi's Hiranandani Hospital has procured the Alair System to conduct Bronchial Thermoplasty.

The Alair System machine uses radiofrequency controlled energy to shrink the bronchial muscles in order to improve Asthma control. It became the first hospital in the western region to procure the system.
