Pediatric Respiratory Therapy

Pediatric respiratory therapy involves specialized care for children with breathing difficulties, such as asthma, infections, or chronic lung conditions. Respiratory therapists assess lung function, provide treatments like inhalers or oxygen therapy, and educate families on managing respiratory issues. They use advanced equipment and techniques tailored to children's needs to improve breathing, ensure comfort, and promote recovery. The goal is to support healthy lung development and help children breathe more easily, whether during illness or ongoing respiratory conditions.
