Management of Pediatric Patients With Oxygen in the Acute Care Setting: Current Guidelines
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Video
Course: #2092Level: Advanced1 Hour
The management of pediatric patients requiring oxygen in acute care settings involves a review of clinical practice guidelines, evidence-based literature, and recommendations specific to this population.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) Interpretation and Case Studies
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Video
Course: #2110Level: Introductory1 Hour
For respiratory therapists, an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) serves as a valuable diagnostic tool to assess the cardiac function of patients. While respiratory therapists primarily focus on the respiratory system, they often encounter patients with cardiopulmonary conditions, where understanding cardiac activity is crucial. The lecture introduces electrocardiogram interpretation and case studies, reviewing ECG interpretation and management strategies.

Recognizing Radiology Patterns in Lung Disease
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Video
Course: #2117Level: Introductory1 Hour
Respiratory therapists are integral members of a healthcare team, collaborating closely with physicians, radiologists, and other healthcare professionals. Proficiency in recognizing radiology patterns empowers them to communicate effectively within the team, providing valuable insights to enhance the overall patient care plan. The introductory course reviews radiological imaging (chest X-rays) for common respiratory disease patterns and the role of respiratory therapists in interpreting these images and identifying abnormal patterns indicative of different respiratory conditions.

Bioterrorism and Emergency Preparedness for Hospital Settings
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Video
Course: #2106Level: Introductory1 Hour
The bioterrorism and emergency preparedness course emphasizes the need for healthcare facilities to be aware and prepared for bioterrorism. The course covers preliminary procedures for natural and biohazard events, helping respiratory therapists create bioterrorism readiness plans.

Methacholine and Bronchial Challenge Testing
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Video
Course: #2095Level: Introductory1 Hour
Methacholine and Bronchial Challenge Testing play crucial roles in assessing airway responsiveness and diagnosing respiratory conditions. The course discusses performing a methacholine bronchial challenge test and exploring its clinical applications in diagnosing reactive airways. The course reviews the various administration methods and associated procedures.

Shaping Culture: Building a Positive Work Environment in Healthcare
Presented by Ten'Niquwa "Nikki" Bryan, B.A.S, M.S.

MAP vs. NAP: The Impact of Mechanical Ventilation on Hemodynamics
Presented by Evan Richards, Advanced Practice Clinical Consultant, BSc, RT
VideoText
Course: #2280Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Mechanical ventilators use positive pressure, unlike normal breathing, which uses negative pressure; as such, ventilators will always have some impact on hemodynamics. This course describes how to have the least detrimental impact on the lungs and other organs during NIV, CMV, and HFV.

What Every Respiratory Therapist Should Know About Antenatal Assessments and High-Risk Deliveries
Presented by Randy Case, PhD, RRT, RRT-NPS
Video
Course: #2129Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This course covers essential antenatal assessments crucial for respiratory therapists, along with strategies for managing high-risk deliveries to ensure optimal maternal and fetal outcomes. Participants are provided with practical insights into navigating critical scenarios and providing expert respiratory support before, during, and after childbirth.

My Patient has Neurological Deficits – Now What?
Presented by Angela Mansolillo, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Video
Course: #2151Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Patients with neurological deficits often present special challenges for respiratory therapists, given their potential motor, sensory, and cognitive-linguistic deficits. This course provides respiratory therapists with the tools to predict and identify neurological deficits in their patients and to implement compensatory strategies to ensure success with respiratory treatments and interventions.
