Respiratory therapy is a healthcare profession that specializes in the treatment of patients with respiratory and cardiopulmonary disorders. Respiratory therapists work with patients of all ages, from premature infants with underdeveloped lungs to elderly individuals with chronic lung disease. They provide care through methods such as administering oxygen therapy, monitoring patients' lung function, conducting diagnostic tests, and assisting with mechanical ventilation. Respiratory therapists play a vital role in managing conditions such as asthma, COPD, and lung infections, as well as providing emergency care for patients experiencing respiratory distress. This research area involves studying innovative therapies and techniques to improve respiratory health outcomes and quality of life for patients.
