RESP 09401Evidence-based Practice

Catalog

This course focuses on the skills needed to critically examine research as evidence for current respiratory clinical practice. In this course, respiratory therapy students will evaluate one or more current respiratory therapy clinical practice modalities and find research evidence that either supports current practice or that indicates the need for change or revision. Discussions will include quality and abundance of evidence and methods for communicating evidence in a way that supports changes in practice or adaptation if support exists.
