Description:

This course will provide the student with the opportunity to learn advanced skills and knowledge about neonatal and pediatric routine and critical respiratory care. The course will approach the subject as a separate portion of modern respiratory cares rather than a modification of adult care. The course will also separate pediatric and neonatal respiratory care modalities. The course contains information beginning with developmental and introductory concepts, then progresses through anatomical and physiological differences, equipment and therapeutic modalities, home care and developmental outcomes using the AARC guidelines and protocols. The goal of this course is to provide the entrylevel practitioner with the knowledge, information and skills necessary to provide respiratory care to the pediatric and neonatal patient at the advanced practitioner level.
