When I was going to nursing school, they had another
program for respiratory therapy. We
would get together at times during a club meeting for Health Occupations
Students of America (HOSA). Breathing
is one of the most basic human needs we have.
Without the exchange of oxygen, we would cease to live. The respiratory students went through rigorous
training and testing to be able to work with patients who had respiratory
needs.
According to Wikipedia, the profession of respiratory
care was officially established over 60 years ago; and respiratory research has
officially existed since the early 1900s.During the early years, respiratory
therapists were referred to as "oxygen technicians", and most of
their activities involved moving cylinders of compressed gas and administering
oxygen via nasal catheter or oxygen tent. Most oxygen technicians were trained
on the job, although brief training programs began to appear in the late 1940s
and 1950s. Today the profession hardly
resembles what it was in the 1940s. Respiratory Therapists provide direct care,
patient education, and care coordination. They are academically trained in
respiratory nursing and respiratory medicine. They practice in acute care
facilities, long-term acute care facilities, skilled nursing facilities,
assisted-living centers, sub-acute care units, rehabilitation centers,
diagnostics units, and in the home.

In the hospital they are responsible not only for
transporting oxygen and applying nasal cannulas, but they also perform treatments
for inhalers, monitor the life support machines, check oxygen levels in the
blood, monitor sleep studies, perform lung percussions, use suction techniques,
and assist during heart attack codes.
Some even help to transport patients by ambulance and
helicopters. They work with newborns and
the elderly in assisting to aid the breathing process.
If you have ever been in the hospital, you have probably
had some contact with a respiratory therapist. This week is designated as
Respiratory Care Week. It is to honor
those who specialize in our breathing needs. The American Association for
Respiratory Care, or AARC, has listed several ways on their website, http://www.aarc.org/rcweek/ to
acknowledge this time. Some of their
suggestions include:
- Celebrate - Hosting activities to honor and reward respiratory therapists for their contributions.
- Motivate - Encouraging patients and their families in their battles against lung disease.
- Educate - Taking awareness of lung diseases like COPD and asthma to the community.
- Inspire - Building the desire in others to enter the respiratory care profession.
- Learn - Maximizing personal and professional skills with new resources.

and don't forget to thank the respiratory therapists you know.
Irrespective of receiving daily oral or future injectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because i have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but i still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.Dr Itua Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Lung Cancer,Breast Cancer,psoriasis,Colo-Rectal Cancer,Blood Cancer,Prostate Cancer,siva.Fatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity
