As case managers for pulmonary disease patients, today’s RTs help develop, assess, and revise patient care plans while also assisting with protocol administration, patient education, and disease management.

The text provides a comprehensive overview of the pulmonary and cardiac disorders that are covered on the NBRC board exams and most frequently require an RT’s care in clinical settings.
