The overall aim of this module is to ensure that the student develops knowledge and understanding of a wider range of investigations utilised within Respiratory and Sleep Sciences and their application in relevant care pathways. This module will build on earlier work to develop themes of public health and epidemiology of respiratory disease and sleep disorders, risk factors, risk assessment and primary prevention, including behavioural change management. Students will develop their skills and knowledge with respect to patient-centred care and the importance of ensuring that it guides all clinical decisions, and further develop skills in muscle function testing, limited multichannel sleep studies and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy.Course lengthFull-time (1 year),Part-time (2 years)Campus locationUniversity: City CampusStart date(s)9 September 2024
