The Advance in Cardiopulmonary Physiotherapy is for those aspiring to enhance their management of patient with heart and lung related issues.
Shortness of breath associated with cardiorespiratory conditions and peripheral muscle weakness limits exercise capacity in patients with pulmonary and cardiac-related issues.
