Comprehensive Pulmonary Assessment	RESD 114	Students will be able to interpret arterial blood gas results.
Current Issues in Respiratory Care	RESD 208	Students will be able to utilize evidence-based medicine and respiratory therapy Students will be able to examine quality improvement processes for determination of standards of performance.
Neonatal Intensive Care	RESD 204	Students will analyze assessment findings and make recommendations for mechanical ventilation.
Pharmacology for Respiratory Care	RESD 108	Given a patient scenario, the student will determine appropriate drug therapy. The student will articulate the difference between the parasympathetic and sympathetic branches of the nervous system.
Pulmonary Anatomy and Physiology	RESD 106	MO: Draw the trachea and right and left main stem bronchus to scale List and describe the five lung volumes and four lung capacities.
Respiratory Therapeutic Modalities	RESD 206	SLO: Given a patient scenario, the student will recommend to initiate or modify therapy as indicated by patient data. Students will be prepared to take the Clinical Simulation board exam. Students will utilize electrocardiograms to gather clinical information.
Respiratory Therapy Science	RESD 104	The student will demonstrate, in the laboratory setting, the correct procedure for aerosolized medication delivery by metered dose inhaler, (MDI) and small volume nebulizer, (SVN). Student will state the indications, hazards, and goals of medical gas therapy according to the AARC Clinical Practice Guidelines for Administration of Oxygen in the Acute Care Hospital.
Respiratory Therapy Science	RESD 110	Student will list the indications for in-line suctioning endotracheal tube suctioning and correctly perform the procedure. The student will demonstrate, in the laboratory setting, the correct procedure for opening the patient's airway and providing Bag-Mask-Ventilation, (BVM).

Techniques of Respiratory Therapy	RESD 200B	The student will be able to perform a comprehensive bedside patient assessment on an adult patient in the critical care unit of a hospital.
Techniques of Respiratory Therapy	RESD 200A	Student will perform a comprehensive bedside patient assessment on an Adult patient on the general care ward of a hospital.
Theory and Principles of Respiratory Therapy	RESD 102	MO: Discuss the major historical events that have shaped modern respiratory care practice. MO: Differentiate between scholarly journal articles and magazine articles. MO: Demonstrate professional behavior. Students will describe the gas laws and relate them to Respiratory Care. MO: Evaluate various on-line sources of information pertaining to respiratory care. MO: Summarize the basic elements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). MO: State the personal protective equipment required to control the spread of airborne infections. Given a patient scenario, select the appropriate personal protective equipment. The student will be able to state the most significant factor that influences a patient’s ability to breathe through an endotracheal tube according to Poiseuille's Law. MO: Explain what constitutes an ethical dilemma and how they arise in health care. MO: Predict gas behavior under changing conditions using gas law calculations.
