Develop essential skills for enhancing respiratory health, ensuring accurate assessment and patient-focused treatment

Clinical Skills and the Respiratory System delivers a structured approach to understanding and mastering the clinical assessment and procedural skills that are essential for delivering safe, effective and compassionate care for patients with conditions affecting the respiratory system.

Part of Peate’s Clinical Skills, a 12-book series that combines knowledge of human anatomy and physiology with practical, confident clinical skills, this volume is organised into chapters covering how to engage with patients, assessing the respiratory system, health promotion, planning care for asthma, vital signs, peak expiratory flow rate, oxygen therapy, and pulse oximetry.

Clinical Skills and the Respiratory System equips readers with:



Clear explanations of anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology relevant to the respiratory system
Step-by-step guidance on assessment, examination, and procedural techniques, emphasising best practice and patient safety
Insights on interpreting findings, recognising abnormalities, and applying knowledge to guide care decisions
Guidance on teamwork, infection prevention and control, documentation, and patient-centred care throughout clinical practice
Strategies to explain diagnoses, treatment plans, and care procedures to patients and families, while offering emotional support

Clinical Skills and the Respiratory System is an essential resource for all healthcare and social care students—including those returning to practice and newly qualified practitioners—who manage patients with respiratory conditions and seek practical ways to deliver a higher standard of care.

Ian Peate is a Visiting Professor at Northumbria University and Buckinghamshire New University and a Senior Clinical Fellow at the University of Hertfordshire. He is also the Editor-in-Chief of the British Journal of Nursing, and Consultant Editor of the Journal of Paramedic Practice and the International Journal of Advancing Practice.
