Respiratory therapists specialize in treating acute and chronic respiratory conditions, including asthma, cardiac arrest, drowning, blockages, anaphylaxis reactions, emphysema, lung infections and cancers. Under the guidance of a physician, they work in all units within a hospital, including the ICU, Pediatric ICU, Neonatal ICU, ER, sleep and pulmonary labs, or in nursing homes and home health settings. They conduct many diagnostic and analytic procedures such as evaluating lung capacity, performing chest physiotherapy, monitoring cardiopulmonary systems, checking patients' tissue specimens, and conducting pulmonary function tests. A primary and vital task of respiratory therapists is the management of ventilators and artificial breathing devices for those who have breathing problems.
