| 1 | Curriculum and Assessment - RES Respiratory Therapist | Completed | Needs Revision | 12/20/2023 | Andrea Wange | Effective Term needs to be changed to Spring; this is a new program and needs accreditation approval and it is unlikely that will happen in time for a Fall 2024 start date. Additionally, the objectives need to be aligned with the course outcomes not just listed as a whole. |

| Catalog Course Description: | This course focuses on an overview of Respiratory Care, and the anatomy and physiology of the cardiopulmonary system and associated structures. Includes: ventilation and diffusion of pulmonary gases, the circulatory system and transport of respiratory gases, and the control of ventilation for acid base balance. Also includes disease processes and their effects on the cardiopulmonary system and structures. |
