What do Neonatal/Pediatric Certified Respiratory Therapists do?
Neonatal/pediatric certified respiratory therapists (RTs) provide specialized care to infants and children with breathing and lung disorders.
Their duties include managing ventilators, administering oxygen and medications, assisting with intubation, and caring for conditions like asthma, cystic fibrosis, and premature infants’ underdeveloped lungs.
These therapists work closely with doctors and nurses to create and implement treatment plans for young patients who require advanced respiratory support.
What they do
Ventilator management: Manage mechanical ventilators, including high-frequency ventilation, for neonates and children.
Medication administration: Administer oxygen therapy, surfactant, and other respiratory medications directly to the lungs.
Emergency care: Perform neonatal resuscitation and assist with high-risk deliveries and other respiratory emergencies.
Intubation: Assist with or perform endotracheal intubation to secure a patient’s airway.
Diagnostic and monitoring: Conduct blood gas analysis and monitor the patient’s respiratory status.
Specialized support: Manage infants with congenital defects, assist with chest tubes, and provide support like CPAP for premature babies.
Patient and family education: Educate families and other healthcare providers on respiratory care.
Environment
