Prerequisites: RSC 111 , RSC 112 , RSC 113 , RSC 115
Corequisites: RSC 121 , RSC 123 , RSC 125 , RSC 127
Equipment theory and application of acute respiratory modalities in adult care are the major focus. Acute respiratory care modalities include mechanical ventilation, airway management, and physiological monitoring of the cardiopulmonary system, ventilator protocols, and special procedures. Critical thinking skills are developed using computer simulations of care plans and patient problems supported by interactive laboratory exercises. RC 122 is the supporting laboratory course for RSC 121.
