, CHAPTER’ 01:’ HISTORY’ OF’ RESPIRATORY’ CARE
Q1.
The’ origins’ of’ modern’ respiratory’therapy’ can’ be’ traced’ most’ directly’ to:
A. The’ invention’ of’ the’ stethoscope
B. The’ polio’ epidemics’of’ the’ 1940s–1950s
C. Discovery’of’ antibiotics
D. The’ introduction’ of’ surgical’ anesthesia
Answer:’ B.’ The’ polio’ epidemics’ of’ the’ 1940s–1950s
Rationale:’ Polio’ outbreaks’ caused’widespread’respiratory’muscle’ paraly’sis,
’ requiring’ prolonged’ ventilation’ in’ ―iron’ lungs.‖’ This’ urgent’need’ le’d’ to’ t
he’ establishment’ of’ respiratory’ therapy’ as’ a’ profession.’ The’ steth’oscope’ (
A)’ and’ anesthesia’ (D)’ were’ medical’ advances,’ but’ not’ directly’tied’ to’ respir
atory’ therapy’s’ beginnings.’ Antibiotics’ (C)’ influenced’ infec’tion’ treatment,’
not’ mechanical’ ventilation’practices.
Q2.
The’ first’ professional’ organization’ for’ respiratory’therapists,’established’in’194
7,’ was:
A. National’ Board’ for’ Respiratory’ Care’ (NBRC)
B. American’ Association’ for’ Respiratory’Care’ (AARC)
C. Inhalation’ Therapy’ Association’ (ITA)
D. American’ Thoracic’ Society’ (ATS)
Answer:’ C.’ Inhalation’ Therapy’ Association’ (ITA)
Rationale:’ The’ ITA’ was’ founded’ in’ 1947’ as’ the’ first’ society’ representi’ng’in
halation’therapists.’It’later’became’the’American’Association’for’I’nhalation’Th
erapy’(AAIT)’and’then’the’AARC’in’1982.’The’NBRC’(A)’m’anages’credentialing,’
not’professional’representation.’The’ATS’(D)’is’pr’imarily’ a’ physician-
scientist’organization.
