As a Respiratory therapist I have many responsibilities. I help manage mechanical ventilators, I maintain airways and also manage artificial airways. This includes endotracheal tubes, nasopharyngeal airways, oropharyngeal airways, tracheostomy tubes, and laryngeal masks. I also assess vital signs to determine a patients status. I counsel patients about their cardiopulmonary health; which includes Asthma education, COPD education, and smoking cessation. I also consult with physicians and members of the medical team to recommend changes in therapy.
