This resource provides an interactive learning approach to cardiopulmonary care. It seeks to present a multitude of topics in a seamless way for both students and clinicians. Two primary components of the text are notes on cardiopulmonary assessment and management, and case histories involving respiratory and cardiovascular conditions commonly viewed by physical therapists. Accompanying the notes are interactive questions and problems that should enable the reader to establish a foundation of core concepts. The presentation of case histories should further facilitate the development of integral skills and is designed to enable the reader to integrate those core concepts into a clinical setting. Topics include: history taking; physical examinations; chest radiology; pulmonary function testing; mobility and exercise testing; clinical decision making; breathing exercises; and airway clearance techniques.
W. Darlene Reid, BMR(PT), PhD W. Darlene Reid, BMR(PT), PhD, is an associate professor at the School of Rehabilitation Sciences, University of British Columbia, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. She earned her physical therapy degree from the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1979. She completed graduate studies in Pathology at the University of British Columbia and obtained her PhD in 1988. Darlene teaches graduate and entry-level physiotherapy respiratory care and muscle injury, and supervises research by graduate and undergraduate students in the School of Rehabilitation Sciences, the School of Human Kinetics, and the Experimental Medicine programs at the University of British Columbia. Undergraduate courses include those related to exercise physiology and physiotherapy management of patients with cardiopulmonary conditions. Graduate teaching is related to exercise physiology, exertion-induced muscle injury, and advanced techniques in the management of cardiovascular and respiratory patients. In addition, Darlene is involved in continuing education related to these areas. Darlene has held scholarship salary awards from the B.C. Health Research Foundation and the Killam Foundation. Her areas of research interests include respiratory muscle injury and pulmonary rehabilitation. Clinically, she has specialized in physiotherapeutic treatment for patients with acute and chronic pulmonary disease. Her clinical research has focused on therapeutic interventions directed toward the ventilatory muscles including ventilatory muscle testing, training, and rest in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Her most recent endeavours have been directed toward understanding different mechanisms that may contribute to diaphragm injury in animal models and evidence of diaphragm injury in humans. Darlene has extensively published, including peer reviewed manuscripts, abstracts, review papers, and chapters. She has been a symposium speaker at a number of international conferences, including the American Thoracic Society, the combined Canadian Physiotherapy Association/American Physical Therapy Association, and the American Physical Therapy Association Combined Sections Meetings. Darlene is a member of the Cardiorespiratory Specialization and Standards Committee and the British Columbia Lung Association Medical Advisory Board. She has served on several national and local committees related to cardiorespiratory physiotherapy as Cardiorespiratory Division Executive of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association, as Executive of the Canadian Physiotherapy Cardiorespiratory Society of Lung Association, and as the provincial coordinator of the Cardiorespiratory Physiotherapy Summit. She also has served and continues to be a reviewer of manuscripts and grants for several agencies.
