General care was the right place for me to start for clinicals. It taught me the basic techniques a respiratory therapist needs. When I first began clinicals‚ it was difficult for me to learn new techniques and procedures for respiratory therapies. I struggled to take them from a procedure learned in a book or on the Mayo Intranet and figure how to apply it when I was with a patient. We did have labs to help us get hands on experience with the therapies but I still didn’t feel confident when entering

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM WEBQUEST 1. Describe the function of the nasal and oral pharynx for breathing. The ph arynx is a muscular funnel that extends from the back of the nose to the larynx‚ or voice box. The nasal pharynx’s function is to allow air passage through it. The oral pharynx has both respiratory and digestive functions since it serves as a passageway for air‚ food‚ and water. 2. Describe the structure and function of the epiglottis. The epiglottis is one of the nine cartilagous structures

Volume-variety and design In Chapter 1 the four V’s of operations were described. These were volume‚ variety‚ variation and visibility. The first two of these – volume and variety – are particularly important when considering design issues in operations management. Not only do they usually go together (high variety usually means low volume‚ high volume normally means low variety) but together they also impact on the nature of products and services and processes which produce them. The volume and

Respiratory acidosis is a condition where body is unable to eliminate all the carbon dioxide within the lungs; this condition results with the body fluids becoming too acidic usually within the patient’s blood. The PCO2 of respiratory acidosis is greater than 45mmHg and the pH would be less than 7.36. (Graham‚ T. (2006). Respiratory alkalosis is when the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood‚ mainly due to breathing excessively are too low. Levels of respiratory alkalosis is a PCO2 of less than 35
