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.

Lost in Translation: Applying Health Literacy Solutions
Presented by Angela Mansolillo, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Video
Course: #2153Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Healthcare professionals of all disciplines are often asked to be patient and family educators without much training or guidance as to how to best communicate critical information. This course utilizes a case review format to provide participants with the tools they need to understand health literacy, identify potential limitations in health literacy, and implement strategies to accommodate learning and literacy differences in our patients and their family members.

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.

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.

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

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.

Breathing, Digestion, and Swallowing – Complex Aero-digestive Disorders in Children
Presented by Angela Mansolillo, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Video
Course: #2152Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Breathing and digestion are inextricably linked to swallowing, and difficulty in one system frequently leads to difficulties in other systems as well.
