The AARC has developed protocols that are pertinent to the topic of Aerosolized Medication Therapy: IPPB Protocol, Secretion Clearance Protocol, Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) Protocol, Small Volume Nebulizer (SVN) Protocol, Therapeutic Effective Dosage Protocol, DNA-ase Protocol, Inhaled Antibiotics Protocol, MDI Protocol for Ventilated

Patients, and several protocols for infants and pediatric patients (see Part XIII).

Also see Strickland, S. L., et al. (2015). AARC clinical practice guideline: Effectiveness of pharmacologic airway clearance therapies in hospitalized patients. Respiratory Care 60, 7, 1071-1077.

NOTE: Standard algorithmic protocol format is such that boxes = start, mandated action and/or end points and diamonds = a yes or no decision is required.

Table 10.1 illustrates common clinical manifestations (i.e., clinical indicators), initial assessments, and treatment selections routinely made by the TDP-practicing respiratory therapist.

Significant.

Severity Assessment

The frequency at which a respiratory therapy modality is to be administered is just as important to quality cost-efficient care as the current selection of the respiratory therapy modality itself. Often the frequency of treatment must be upregulated or down-regulated on a shift-by-shift, hour-to-hour, minute-to-minute, or even (in life-threatening situations) second-to-second basis. Such frequency changes must be made in response to a severity assessment.

In a good TDP program, the well-seasoned respiratory therapist routinely and systematically documents many severity assessments throughout each working day. For the new practitioner, however, a predesigned Severity Assessment Rating Form may be used to enhance this important part of the assessment process. One excellent, semiquantitative method of accomplishing this is illustrated in Table 10.2. The clinical application of severity assessment using this scale is provided in the following case example:

Severity Assessment Case Example

A 67-year-old man arrived in the emergency department in respiratory distress. The patient was well known to the therapist-driven protocol (TDP) team; he had been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis several years before this admission (3 points). The patient had no recent surgery history, and he was ambulatory, alert, and cooperative at the time of admission (0 points). He complained of dyspnea and was using his accessory muscles of inspiration (3 points). Auscultation revealed bilateral coarse crackles over both lung fields (3 points). His cough was weak and productive of thick gray sputum (3 points). A chest radiograph revealed pneumonia (consolidation) in the left lower lobe (3 points).

On room air his arterial blood gas values were pH 7.52, PaCO2 54, 41, and PaO2 52, suggesting an ABG-based

diagnosis of acute alveolar hyperventilation superimposed on chronic ventilatory failure (3 points).

Using the Severity Assessment Form shown in Table 10.2, the following treatment selection and administration frequency would be appropriate:

Total score: 17 (moderate)

Treatment selection: Chest physical therapy

Frequency of administration: Four times a day; and as needed

The Essential Cornerstones of a Successful Therapist-Driven Protocol Program

Although there are many “assess and treat” respiratory care protocols (now more appropriately called Assess, Treat, and Teach Protocols) used throughout the health care industry today, the following respiratory protocols provide the essential
