The cardiopulmonary topics program is designed to offer a more comprehensive view of individuals with both cardiac and pulmonary issues. The majority of patients seen will have a history of chronic disease however those with acute processes will also be included. The goal of this course is to provide you, the student, with the opportunity to expand the breadth and depth of your cardiopulmonary knowledge. A variety of clinical practice settings will be offered to you, not limited to physical therapy. Understanding the team approach to patient diagnosis and management as well as gaining patient perspective is key to gaining a more advanced understanding of cardiac and pulmonary processes. This course will primarily include clinical observations. The majority of opportunities will be outpatient however some inpatient care will be offered.
