This course is aimed at equipping therapists with a commitment to providing out of hours respiratory physiotherapy with a sound grounding and directing their future learning. Built around case studies, it covers assessment, interpretation of ABG’s, chest x-rays and other investigations and the identification of key problems which are amenable to physio intervention. Treatment strategies are discussed from the point of starting intervention and the progression of treatment. An open teaching style is adopted with the positive encouragement of participation of the group. There are some practical elements and so all participants should come suitably dressed with a willingness to be involved.
