-
2.00 Credits
The course will focus on evaluation and performance of various pulmonary function tests and protocols. Topics include lung volumes, ventilation tests, pulmonary mechanics, diffusion ventilation, blood flow, normal and abnormal results of tests results, and various equipment used to perform these tests. Case studies are utilized within the course to incorporate the critical thinking process. Contact: 2 hours per week. Additional fee.
-
1.00 Credits
The course provides 2 contact hours and 1 hour of credit toward the A.S. degree in Respiratory Care and will transfer to UCF's B.S. in Cardiopulmonary Sciences. Students will develop a cardiopulmonary rehabilitation program and/or a homecare business. This process will include clinical assessment plans and evaluation of measured outcomes. Students compete in a respiratory brain bowl based on weekly assigned NBRC matrix topics. Contact: 3 hours per week.
-
2.00 Credits
A more in depth look at the cardiovascular system with a review of the pulmonary system. The course will detail diagnostics and therapeutics related to these systems. These to include various types of pressure monitoring, cardiac output monitoring, intraaortic balloon pumping, open heart and thoracic surgery, fluid and electrolytes, and pharmacologic intervention. Critical thinking skills are applied with assessment, monitoring, and management of the patient with hemodynamic instabilities. Contact: 2 hours per week.
-
1.00 Credits
The course provides 3 contact hours and 1 credit hour towards the A.S. degree in Respiratory Care and will transfer to UCF's B.S. in Cardiopulmonary Sciences. The lab will apply and add to concepts learned in RET2442 using equipment and procedures in a case study context. Contact: 3 hours per week. Additional fee.
-
2.00 Credits
The course provides 2 hours of credit toward the A.S. degree in Respiratory Care and will transfer to UCF's B.S. in Cardiopulmonary Sciences. The course will focus on anatomy of the cardiopulmonary system, mechanics of ventilation, lung volumes and deadspace, diffusion of pulmonary gases, and oxygen transport. Case studies will be utilized to incorporate the critical thinking process. Contact: 2 hours per week.
-
2.00 Credits
The course will focus on the circulatory system, oxygen transport, carbon dioxide transport, ventilation to perfusion relationships, control of ventilation, renal failure and its effects on the cardiopulmonary system, aging and its effects on the cardiopulmonary system, exercise, high altitude, and high pressure environments and their effects on the cardiopulmonary system. Case studies will be utilized to incorporate the critical thinking process. Contact: 2 hours per week.
-
1.00 Credits
The course will focus on critical thinking skills using therapist driven protocols in managing case studies of cardiopulmonary patients. The course will also focus on respiratory monitoring, cardiac assessment, and hemodynamic assessment in the intensive care unit. Contact: 2 hours per week.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers the development and physiology of the neonatal pulmonary system. Disorders and diseases will be examined with emphasis on etiology, pathophysiology, treatment, and management. Students are taught PALS and NRP content and finish the class with NRP certification. Contact: 3 hours per week.
-
1.00 Credits
Application of concepts learned in RET 2714 will be utilized with case scenarios on the simulator as well as basic lab competencies. Contact: 3 hours per week.
-
1.00 Credits
The students will attend 8 hours of clinical rotation each week, continuing to practice floor therapy procedures. They will also attend a weekly lab applying advanced Respiratory Care procedures learned using the Human Patient Simulator. The course will focus on general airway management, ventilator initiation and management, charting, weaning, and extubation. Contact: 12 hours per week.
