-
3.00 Credits
Advanced-practice pathology of the heart and lungs presented in case study format for articulating a working diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care based on an abundance of patient assessment techniques including patient history/physical, signs, symptoms, and ancillary radiographic evidence. Medical information gathered from research database articles are presented to enhance a decision-making rationale for the treatment of cardiopulmonary diseases.
-
3.00 Credits
An application of teaching and learning theories for adult learners across variable clinical, laboratory, simulation lab, and in face-to-face interactions are explored within both traditional and non-traditional classroom settings. Teaching strategies and simulation designs are designed to support student learning for future respiratory therapy educators and clinical instructors.
-
3.00 Credits
This course aims to explore concepts of teaching and learning theories (adult learners) in a rapidly changing healthcare environment. Included are knowledge, attitudes, and skills needed to train future respiratory therapy educators, clinical educators for expanding roles in healthcare.
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores research-based evidence of best practices for advanced respiratory care practitioners (RCP's) by identifying important questions, i.e., medication, ventilation strategies, protocols, etc. in the evaluation, diagnosis, or treatment of patients suffering abnormalities of the cardiopulmonary system. A methodological approach to evaluate practice is explored through a systematic literature search whereby the evidence manifest through particular treatments of a population can be expected.
-
3.00 Credits
Research is a fundamenal part of healthcare. This course will explore research opportunities specifically in the field of respiratory care. Basic statistical concepts will be reviewed. Nominal, ordinal, and continuous methods will also be studied. Publishing the findings through an original research paper, an abstract, case report, and poster presentation will be a main focus for this course.
-
3.00 Credits
Evaluation and assessment of pulmonary disease is an important skill for the advanced-practice respiratory care practioner (RCP). Requisite to making an accurate diagnosis, practitioners must understand diagnostic measurements and recommend treatment of patients with specific pulmonary diseases. This course is essential to gain knowledge to pass the CPFT (NBRC) exam for Certified Pulmonary Function Technologists.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is essential to gain knowledge in the evaluation and treatment of sleep disorders in the context of a polysomnography lab and to pass the SDS (NBRC) credential for sleep disorder specialists.
-
3.00 Credits
This course prepares the advanced-practice respiratory care practitioner (RCP) to optimally participate in the assessment, management, and care of newborn and pediatric populations. The course includes development, common disease pathology, pharmacology, and management of neonatal patients, emergency treatment, and evaluation of conditions and abnormalities of the cardiopulmonary systems. This course wil prepare the practitioner for a national neonatal and pediatric specialty examination (NPS).
-
3.00 Credits
This course prepares the advanced-practice respiratory care practitioner (RCP) to effectively evaluate, assess, manage and provide appropriate care to critically ill adult patients. This course extensively covers advanced airway and cardiovascular management, mechanisms of respiratory failure, analysis of laboratory and imaging results, specialty medical gasses and pharmacological agents, management of patients with infectious disease and sepsis, assisting and performing advanced procedures, and end-of-life care in the adult population. This course will prepare the practioner for an advanced critical care specialty credentialing examination (ACCS).
-
3.00 Credits
This course prepares the advanced-practice respiratory care practitioner (RCP) to optimally educate patients and family members of patients suffering with asthma. The course includes disease pathophysiology, assessment, pharmacology, classification, and management of asthma based on severity, emergency treatment and evaluation of treatment programs. This course will prepare the practitioner for a national asthma education certification examination (AE-C).
