I bet when you signed up for Respiratory Therapy School, you probably were not expecting to do much math, am I right?
Because, I mean, this is a healthcare program that teaches you how to care for patients with cardiopulmonary disorders. How much math could there possibly be? Well if you're like me, you were probably pretty shocked to find out that there are several formulas, calculations, and equations that you're required to know.
If I'm being honest, I was not very pleased to find this out. But, with that said, I have some good news. Most of the calculations that you will have to do are very simple, If, that is, here's the key. They're simple as long as you know the formula. If you know the formulas, the math is very simple because all you have to do is plug the numbers in and work it out. In this video, we're simply going to cover all the formulas that you'll see in Respiratory Therapy School. Some are harder than others but most are very simple.
💡Examples of Respiratory Therapy Formulas:
Minute Ventilation (VE)
VE = Respiratory Rate x Tidal Volume
Alveolar Minute Ventilation (VA)
VA = Respiratory Rate x (Tidal Volume - Deadspace)
Airway Resistance (Raw)
Raw = (PIP - Plateau pressure) / Flow
Mean Airway Pressure (Paw)
Paw = ((Inspiratory Time x Frequency) / 60) x (PIP - PEEP) + PEEP
Work of Breathing (WOB)
WOB = Change in Pressure x Change in Volume
Alveolar-Arterial Oxygen Tension Gradient (P(A-a)O2)
P(A-a)O2 = PAO2 - PaO2
Alveolar Oxygen Tension (PAO2)
PAO2 = (PB - PH2O) x FiO2 - (PaCO2 / 0.8)
Arterial/Alveolar Oxygen Tension (a/A) Ratio
(a/A) Ratio = PaO2/PAO2
Arterial Oxygen Content (CaO2)
CaO2 = (Hb x 1.34 x SaO2) + (PaO2 x 0.003)
End-Capillary Oxygen Content (CcO2)
CcO2 = (Hb x 1.34 x SaO2) + (PAO2 x 0.003)
Mixed Venous Oxygen Content (CvO2)
CvO2 = (Hb x 1.34 x SvO2) + (PvO2 x 0.003)
Shunt Equation (QS/QT)
QS/QT = (CcO2 - CaO2) / (CcO2 - CvO2)
Modified Shunt Equation (QS/QT)
QS/QT = ((PAO2 - PaO2) x 0.003) / ((CaO2 - CvO2) + (PAO2 - PaO2) x 0.003)
Arterial-Mixed Venous Oxygen Content Difference (C(a-v)O2)
C(a-v)O2 = CaO2 - CvO2
Oxygen-to-Air Entrainment Ratio (O2:Air)
O2:Air = 1 : (100 - FiO2) / (FiO2 - 2)

Dpes it give an intro to these formulas im not in RT school but i am going to study ahead of time will this help?

[@lexi5111]

I just graduated from a Respiratory program this past Thursday. I love your videos & website very informative. Thank you so much!!!!

[@RS-ig1zr]

I have great respect for all respiratory therapists.

[@ClassieLadie3]

So many equations to remember 🤯🤯🤯🤯...

[@kwesib4702]

I love your sense of humor you make it seems fun.

[@seddiqOutlaw4]

Thank you for everything man!!!!!

[@AYAZKHAN-pm5pf]

Great Learning Videose👍

[@shanshan8113]

Can you make a video of you doing a couple of problems for each equation??

[@jeffreyestacio1625]

Thanks!

[@zosimomonsanto5308]

Thanks 👍👍👍

[@drasjkakar8181]

Highly Appreciable & academic app,s whicj provides realistic approach.

[@derekbailey4151]

Great video, but a couple mistakes: the T1/T2 in Charles' Law and Gay-Lussac's Law is for temperature, not time; converting Fahrenheit to Celsius, divide by 1.8, don't multiply.

[@atitsmotovlog2048]

Do you have normal parameters and indication and contraindications?

[@briambolu5161]

How do you know when to use certain equations? That is my disconnect.

[@kennygarcia102]

Where can i start for begginer?

[@kennygarcia102]

Can i study this book before going to RT school so i will have formulas memorized? I have no idea where these formulas are about 😀

[@khadijabelqas]

From Fahrenheit to Celcius you wanna make sure you divide at the end by 1.8 and not multiply.

[@cosmicshen88]

I start my program June 29 and I am now terrified 😂😭

[@RespiratoryTherapyZone]

You got this! 💪🏼

[@cosmicshen88]

@@RespiratoryTherapyZone thanks. I hope its not as intimidating as it seems. lol

[@GGatsbyMusic]

you will be fine. By the time your coming to the end of your school term just start studying kettering and take the test before u forget everything. Good luck !!

[@zakil1605]

How was it?

[@kennygarcia102]

@@GGatsbyMusic there is the TMC and the CSE Is tht how many tests we will take after finishing program just 2?

[@kashmerecute1]

what if the patient was 6 feet and over what would the equation be?

[@revenantsage]

Do you have to memorize all formulas? Or do you use a guide for reference for those equations that are not used a often as others?

[@kwesib4702]

In Orange Coast College Respiratroy program you’re required to know them during exams

[@christiedickenson9938]

Most schools will require you to memorize the formulas. You will need to have them memorized for the board exams for sure.
