Josh Royal Papworth Respiratory Physiology CPET lead, this afternoon giving a fantastic overview of pre-operative CPET and an insight into the pectus excavatum and heart transplant exercise test performed at Royal Papworth Hospital NHS FT 💙 #ARTP2024 #cambridgerespphysiology

Tonight we celebrate the amazing achievement and hard work of the team who have completed their ARTP practitioner qualification! Portfolio of evidence, MCQs, calculation, practical exams and clinical viva highlight not only competence but commitment to excellence Congratulations!

Travelling back from #ARTP2024 Reflecting on the fantastic research which has been presented by both Cambridge University Hospitals NHS and our Cambridge colleagues at Royal Papworth Respiratory Physiology Thank you ARTP ARTP Chair for an excellent few days!

Congratulations to our own Chris Harding appointed ARTP vice spirometry chair, looking forward to the seeing the exciting plans for spirometry teaching, qualification and guidance! ARTP @artp

Congratulations to our own Lead Respiratory Physiologist Matt Rutter for his appointment as Vice Chair of ARTP - we look forward to seeing the fantastic things you will do in the next 4 years ARTP

Congratulations to Will, who passed his ARTP spirometry certificate! 🎉

Congratulations to Fran, Chris and Matt for receiving Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Annual Together, Kind and Excellent Awards!

Lead Respiratory Physiologist Matt Rutter Matt Rutter featured in todays @cuh_nhs daily staff broadcast, talking about his experiences and career as well as his new role with ARTP as Vice Chair, Read the article below to find out more … cuh.nhs.uk/our-people/my-…

We have arrived in Vienna for the ERS Conference 2024 ERS Cambridge University Hospitals NHS and Royal Papworth Respiratory Physiology in strong attendance presenting; research, skills workshops and chairing sessions. #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Physiology hot topic of #ERS2024 : Race and Ethnicity in pulmonary function testing with presentations discussing the impact of ethnic or racial classification in interpreting pulmonary function test results and the consequence of misinterpretation #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Pulmonary Function tests: Advanced technology and improved quality control for better patient care poster session is chaired by Matt Rutter maru from @cuh_nhs on innovative changes we can make to get the most from breathing tests. #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Lucy from Royal Papworth Respiratory Physiology presenting the comparison of Fowler and Cotes dead space methods during single breath gas transfer. #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Holly from Royal Papworth Respiratory Physiology presenting, a Quality Assurance Review Model for Pulmonary Function – The Royal Papworth Method. Highlighting the importance of regular quality assurance procedures to support clinical-decision making. #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Ella from @cuh_nhs Ella Louise O'Neill presenting: Is the FOT a suitable surrogate for more volitional lung function testing in COPD? Giving insight into if FOT can be used as an alternative measurement to body plethsomography in COPD patients #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Chara from @cuh_nhs presenting research on the utility of gas transfer measurement to identify low total lung capacity, highlighting how VA can be used as a surrogate for TLC, particularly in restrictive associated lung disease. #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Ben from Royal Papworth Respiratory Physiology and @HLRI_cambridge presenting the association of isolated small airways obstruction (SAO) with gas transfer and static lung volume measurements. #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Chara from @cuh_nhs presenting: The utility of spirometry in the detection of low total lung capacity in clinical populations which highlights that due to low sensitivity, spirometry is a poor predictor of true low TLC. #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Physiology research presentation session is titled: Pulmonary Function testing: it’s more than just spirometry, chaired by Ben Royal Papworth Respiratory Physiology , topics such as; the sensitivity of lung function and physiologist-led home spirometry assessment #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

Josh from Royal Papworth Respiratory Physiology presenting: The clinical impact of obtaining a single acceptable gas transfer manoeuvre. Highlighting negligible differences if one manoeuvre is taken! #ERS2024 #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology

That’s a wrap for Cambridge Respiratory Physiology at #ERS2024 Congratulations to everyone who presented at the conference, fantastic few days of learning 🇦🇹✈️ #CambridgeRespiratoryPhysiology #respisbest
