Respiratory Muscle Strength Training is an important addition to our treatment program. Often our treatment programs do not include this modality. This course builds on our basic knowledge of respiration and its connection to speech and swallowing. However, respiration also ties into cardiovascular function and our immune system. These connections will be investigated. We will identify signs and symptoms occupational therapists, physical therapists and nurses should look for during interactions with their clients that would indicate the presence of respiratory muscle weakness. Various diseases and disorders contributing to respiratory muscle strength weakness including COVID-19 will be discussed as well as the use of respiratory muscle strength training in patient recovery and therapy programs. Inspiratory and Expiratory muscle strength training tools and their protocols will be discussed These will be presented with comparisons of similarities and differences. Studies relating to the efficacy of respiratory muscle strength training will be presented for numerous diseases, including COVid-19 throughout the course.

Course Objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • discuss muscles and their function in inspiration and respiration
  • educate other disciplines on signs and symptoms of respiratory muscle weakness to generate referrals
  • identify specific disorders and diseases that would impact respiration including COVID-19
  • determine the most appropriate tool for patients who need respiratory muscle strength training
  • discuss efficacy of respiratory muscle strength training in three patient populations

Reviews

I greatly appreciate "mixing up" the teaching modalities. Maybe consider adding video or other methods, rather than just lecture. But, very informative.

- Live Streaming or Studio Audience, FL / Jan 2022

It would have been nice to have more suggestions for alternative ways to do RMT instead of just using the devices. There was a lot of research, but more clinical recommendations would have been nice.

Overall, wonderful presentation! Denise if very knowledgeable in this area of practice. I would have liked a little time at end of session for Q&A with presenter. I appreciate the work that went into making sure the seminar could still be presented today.

This workshop was packed with useful information, and also provided a much-needed review of the pulmonary system.

The course was well organized and presented. I was appreciative of the information on COVID-19 as this is a situation/reality that we are currently facing.

- Live Streaming or Studio Audience, FL / Aug 2020

Really appreciated the seamless and reliable technological platform that you provided to deliver this seminar. I have experienced some online live streaming seminars that have had repeated tech problems which affected the ability to learn from the seminar.

- Live Streaming or Studio Audience, FL / Aug 2020

Great course. Thanks for discussing the ramifications of COVID as well.

- Live Streaming or Studio Audience, FL / Aug 2020

Denise is adorable and very knowledgeable in the SLP field. I enjoyed her presentation and I was concerned that she was only going to talk about utilizing "commercial" tools like many CEU courses do in the beginning; however, she was able to provide SLPs with real world application training and tips. Thank you so much! Hopefully I can come to a live course in the future!

- Live Streaming or Studio Audience, FL / Aug 2020

Great course, enjoyed the breaks from the screen as well as times when she shared and demonstrated use with the tools
