We know that respiratory patients are often very challenging.

They tend to be really stressed, and teetering on a knife-edge, balancing their increased demand for oxygen with a disease impacting their oxygenation.

And this means that careful handling, supportive care and approaching these patients confidently, the right way, are absolutely essential to give them the best care and avoid complications.

In today’s episode - the first in a brand new series all about respiratory disease - we’ll be laying the foundations, taking a brief journey back to A&P and all of the need-to-know information about the respiratory system.

Because when we understand how it’s supposed to work, we can better understand what to do when it goes wrong.
