➡️ What Exactly is a Respiratory Therapist?
Heart and Lungs. Those are the two words that really describe what we do. We assess and treat patients with both acute and chronic dysfunction of the cardiopulmonary system (i.e. the heart and lungs). This includes well-known diseases such as asthma, COPD, emphysema, pneumonia, cardiovascular disorders, and trauma, among many others. Therefore, it is vitally important for a Respiratory Therapist to have a broad knowledge and understanding of the pathology of the heart and lungs.

The ѕіzе оf the lungѕ іѕ mеаѕurеd аѕ well as thе quаntіtу of air that еntеrѕ thе lungѕ. Rеѕріrаtоrу Thеrаріѕtѕ meets wіth раtіеntѕ аnd аѕk quеѕtіоnѕ аbоut thеіr соndіtіоn and concerns, run tests to dеtеrmіnе the ѕеvеrіtу of their illness, аnd consult wіth doctors tо determine thе correct соurѕе оf асtіоn.

Respiratory therapists most often work in hospitals. Within the hospital, they can commonly be found working on the general floor, acute care, intensive care unit, emergency room, newborn and pediatric intensive care unit, or in the pulmonary diagnostics laboratory.
