Respiratory Care is a healthcare discipline focused on the assessment, treatment, management, and prevention of respiratory disorders and conditions affecting the lungs and airways. It involves a range of medical services that support patients with breathing difficulties or respiratory system impairments. Respiratory care practitioners, often known as respiratory therapists, utilize various therapeutic and diagnostic techniques, including the administration of aerosol medications, oxygen therapy, mechanical ventilation, and pulmonary rehabilitation. They work in various healthcare settings such as hospitals, outpatient clinics, and home care environments, playing a crucial role in managing chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pneumonia, as well as providing emergency care for acute respiratory issues. Overall, respiratory care aims to enhance respiratory function, improve patients’ quality of life, and promote overall health through effective management of respiratory conditions.
