19 courses with the subject RSP, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
This course is designed to provide the student a comprehensive review of the content areas necessary for successful completion of the NBRC Entry Level
This course is designed as an introduction to respiratory care. Topics include professional associations, the hospital structure, basic patient assessment, aseptic principles and the administration of medical gases, aerosol and humidity therapy. An introduction to charting is presented. (F)
This course deals with the techniques for providing proper respiratory care treat- ment modalities including: IPPB, HHN, ABG’s, chest physical therapy, postural drainage, incentive spirometry and breathing exercises. The techniques and pro- cedures used in pulmonary function studies is also included. (W)
An introduction to the theories and techniques of continuous ventilation. Topics include the maintenance of artificial airways including suctioning, indications, ABG’s, and physiological considerations involved in the care of ventilator patients. Appropriate equipment selection, techniques, and physiological effects of mode selection, PEEP, expiratory resistance, inspiratory hold and high frequency ven- tilation will be emphasized. (Sp)
This course is designed to introduce the student to the study of disease processes in the human body. Emphasis will be placed upon the cause, pathogenesis, occurrence, and prognosis of common human diseases. (W)
An introduction to pediatric and neonatal anatomy, physiology, and disease processes. Ventilator care and management will be stressed along with differ- ent modes of therapy used in pediatrics. (Sp)
This course will provide the student with an opportunity to apply the techniques of aerosol, humidity, and medical gas therapy in a clinical situation with proper supervision. Chest X-ray interpretation is introduced. (W)
This course will provide the students an opportunity to apply the techniques of IPPB, chest physiotherapy, pulmonary function studies, and chest x-ray and arterial blood gas analysis in a clinical situation with proper supervision. (Sp)
This course provides the student an opportunity for an intensive application of respiratory therapy to specific areas of the hospital such as the neonatal intensive care, medical surgical intensive care, respiratory intensive care, cardiac and car- diovascular intensive cares. Physician rounds will also be included. (Su) 236
This course will provide an in-depth study of the physiology of the cardio-respira- tory system with emphasis on hemodynamic principles. Nutrition, fluid balance, renal physiology and concepts of advanced cardiac life support are presented. Special diagnostic testing and procedures are also discussed. (Su)
This course will attempt to prepare students to take the National Board Exams. Major topics will include proper presentation skills for patient care presentations, studying skills, test-taking skills, test content and examination outlines. The stu- dent will practice taking written, oral and clinical simulation exams. (Sp)
This course is an in-depth study of the mechanisms and hazards of mechanical ventilation. Modifications of therapy according to physiological parameters dis- ease states are stressed.
Continuation of Mechanical Ventilation I. Upon completion of this course the student should be able to describe effect and complication of mechanical venti- lation on nervous, renal and cardiac system. Explain and make usage of different modes of ventilation/oxygenation. Explain the indication and procedures for discontinuation of and weaning patient from mechanical ventilation. (W)
Mechanics and interpretation of pulmonary function will include body plethys- mography, planimetry and bedside screening. Diffusion study techniques, iso- flows and Vmax 50 are discussed. Topics also included are blood gas quality control and equipment for testing. (W)
A study in planning, organizing, directing, and controlling a respiratory care/car- diopulmonary department. Record keeping, charting, and personnel manage- ment will be covered. The student may undertake actual management respon- sibilities during the course. (Sp)
An in-depth study of neonatal and pediatric physiology, mechanical ventilation, disease processes, evaluation and care of the pediatric patient is presented. (F)
Under supervision, the student will apply and practice the techniques of mechan- ical ventilation and emergency respiratory support measures as required in various hospital settings and demonstrate clinical competence. Emphasis will be in inten- sive care, physician rounds, special procedures and differential diagnostic proce- dures. Skills of respiratory physical assessment and diagnostic interpretation will be emphasized. (F) 237
This clinical experience is designed to cover the total aspects of respiratory care for the acute and chronically ill adult or neonate. Skills in respiratory physical assessment and diagnostics are redefined. Management skills are surveyed. (W)
A continuation of RSP 0222. The student will practice and become proficient in all respiratory care modalities in critical care settings. (Sp)
