Info on Respiratory treatment for Stroke?


I'm trying to find information on Respiratory treatment for Stroke to write a paper.. does anyone know of any sites to use???
I can't seem to find anything directly linked to RSP.

Thank you so much.

That's because there is no treatment linked directly to respiratory. A stroke is brain death usually caused by a clot.

The only time a respiratory therapist might intervene is when they have trouble ventilating, in which case we make them breathe either with an AMBU bag or for long term an endotracheal tube or tracheostomy with a ventilator.

We also might have to suction their airway if they have trouble with airway clearence.

That's pretty much it.
