There are a number of reasons why a cough may be ineffective.  It all starts with assessing the four phases of a cough.  Once the inefficiency is highlighted it’s time to work on improving it.  

Pending which phase is most affected, depends on how you will approach the interventions. Whether you are utilizing posture, applying manual pressure or aiming for time, there is something beneficial for each person. More importantly are the consequences of this improvement.

Tune is as we break it all down.

In today’s episode, we break down the priorities of seeing a patient with Aspergillus  pneumonia (PNA).  When coughing and shortness of breath are the primary limitations, what should be your primary focus during your session?  As much as mobility is a huge priority in the acute care setting, it is not the only thing to consider in this patient population. As physical therapists, we should be empowered to use our whole scope of practice to prioritize assessment techniques and interventions that cater to your patient’s primary concerns; in this case, breathing, mucus, and fatigue.

Join me as we tackle this case and discuss the real priorities of a chest assessment and subsequent interventions to make greater impact.

In this episode:

• Basics of Aspergillus pneumonia diagnosis
• Cavitation
• Chest Assessment
• Phases of a cough 
• Airway clearance techniques
• Percussion/vibration
• Huff cough technique
• Functional Cough

Has COVID entered your home? Are you trying to prevent spreading COVID to your family members or are you trying to prevent getting COVID in your own home?
Four years in, I’m sure we are all well versed in COVID transmission and how to prevent spread, but what options do we have once it has entered the home?  Is it a lost cause to try and prevent transmission? Are there strategies we can take?

This is one of the most common questions I get asked, usually once someone tests positive in the home.   Although there are no guarantees, there are strategies we can take to decrease the risk of spread.

Join me as I discuss preventing the spread of COVID in your own home from a personal and clinical perspective.

Halfway through the year, have you checked in with your personal goals? I certainly have been sitting and reflecting on the speediness of the last 6months and setting some new intentions for the upcoming year.

But after a short dialogue about self-reflection, we jump back into all things Cardiopulm and break down the respiratory metaboreflex.  What it is, when it kicks in, its overall impact on the body and the role in RMT to ward off its response.  There is still a lot of unknown about the physiologic process but we will touch on what is known and what may impact your practice.

Has your patient ever been surprised by the level of debility that has occurred in such a short period of time? 

The amount of change that occurs in such a short period is of no surprise but is still profound and can cause major changes in a person’s life, including but not limited to falls, weakness, cardiovascular changes and much more. 

Tune into this episode to explore the physiologic changes that occur with “bed rest.”

Do not underestimate the value of foundational knowledge. Understanding the basics, the foundation allows you to piece together multiple complex diagnoses, medications, theories and much more. 

Join me, as we break down the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic factors that impact the cardiopulmonary system. The autonomic system plays an intricate role in second-to-second adaptations of the heart and lungs to the environment, exercises, stressors, heat and even meds.

Understanding the why, will always give you more depth. Let’s get after it!
