Respiratory Humidity
Humidity is critical to human respiratory health. Our airways naturally condition inspired air to a level of temperature and humidity that enables physiologic equilibrium in the airway. When this natural balance is disrupted, the performance of the lung is inhibited. Maintaining this physiologic harmony is vital to a patient’s outcome. Sponsored by an unrestricted educational grant from Fisher & Paykel Healthcare, this student learning module provides an overview of humidity, optimal humidity levels and the mucociliary transport system, methods of delivering humidity and moisture to the airways, identifies patient groups at greater risk from lack of humidification, and reviews the AARC Clinical Practice Guidelines on humidification during mechanical ventilation. This learning module will take you approximately five (5) hours to complete.

Student Success: Optimizing Your Professional Settings
Clinical rotations are a vital part of the respiratory therapy educational experience. They allow respiratory therapy students to apply their new knowledge in supervised, real-life situations and gain experience necessary for functioning as a graduate respiratory therapist. However, clinical rotations also provide both respiratory therapy students and managers the opportunity to identify whether or not that student and facility would fit well together for post-graduation employment. Join this special panel for a conversation about how you can make the most of your clinical rotations to earn the job you want after graduation.
