Welcome • Brief biographical sketch of the student completing this thesis study including: 1. About the student 2. Student educational background 3. Student professional background
Problem Identification • Interest in finding out what variables led to success on the Written Registry Exam (WRE) and the Clinical Simulation Examination (CSE). • Both examinations, along with the entry level examination, are required for the respiratory therapy student to attain the credential of RRT.
Problem Statement • Are graduates of advanced practitioner respiratory therapist training programs with higher time exposures to critical care areas such as Level III NICU’s, and Level I Trauma Centers, more successful on the WRE and the CSE?
Hypothesis • It is my hypothesis that those students attending advanced respiratory practioner programs, that have more access to Level I Trauma Centers, Level III NICU’s as well as Pediatric and Adult ICU’s, are more successful on the WRE and CSE.
Purpose The purpose of the study, if my hypothesis proves to be correct, could be used by advanced respiratory practitioner programs to modify the amount of time spent at clinical sites that meet the critical care criteria set forth in this study.
Method • My intention is to design a survey that is to be filled out by respiratory care program directors. Within the survey will be questions revolving around success rates on the WRE and CSE as well as time spend in critical care areas.
Conclusion • The data received as a result of the survey will be collected and tabulated. After tabulation I will analyze the data and interpret the findings of the study
