Proceedings from the Canadian Society of Respiratory Therapists Annual Education Conference

We are pleased to present a select number of abstracts from the proceedings of the CSRT Annual Education Conference. Held in Niagara Falls, Ontario, May 9–11, 2019, this conference included topics delivered by international, national and regional individuals with expertise in various areas of respiratory therapy practice. As evidenced by the following abstracts, the work of our colleagues in 2019 highlighted current research and practice innovations led by RTs. We have made every effort to include all abstracts accepted by the Program Committee before the publication deadline; however, please note that this collection does not represent the entire program (available at www.csrt.com). The editorial board looks forward to receiving manuscripts from this conference for consideration for publication in the Canadian Journal of Respiratory Therapy to continue building the body of knowledge specific to our profession. Please note these abstracts have not been peer reviewed.
