Catalog description

Students advance their clinical reasoning and clinical skills in managing patients with cardiovascular and pulmonary dysfunction. Students focus on PT examination, evaluation (diagnosis and prognosis), interventions, and outcomes for patients with cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders across the lifespan and health-care settings. Students consider the range of practice from prevention through palliative care, from acute to chronic care, and relevant fiscal and regulatory resources or constraints. Cardiopulmonary clinical practice guidelines, available evidence, and interprofessional practice opportunities are incorporated.
