Respiratory care protocols have been developed for specific therapies that include the following: oxygen titration, weaning from mechanical ventilation, sampling arterial blood gases, managing bronchospasm and secretions, treating atelectasis, endotracheal extubation, and managing the postextubation airway. Although relatively little attention has been given to using protocols in postanesthesia care, this environment lends itself to applying protocols. In this context, studies have examined and support the use of protocols for titrating supplemental oxygen, weaning patients from mechanical ventilation, and sampling arterial blood gases. As with other previously mentioned respiratory protocols, these protocols have shown efficacy for improving allocation of respiratory care services, cost savings, and favorable clinical outcomes. On this basis, while recognizing the need for further studies, respiratory care protocols implemented by respiratory therapists can be beneficial in the postanesthesia care setting.
