Article Abstract
Simulation-based education (SBE) refers to the use of specialized equipment in a controlled setting to enable learners to safely practice real-life procedures and scenarios. Though the respiratory therapy (RT) profession was an early-adopter of SBE and many RT education programs report its use, there have been few attempts to examine the related literature and report on broad themes in this area. Hence, the purpose of this explorative paper is to provide readers with an enhanced understanding of SBE trends within RT academic education, which may help promote a more informed use and encourage more scholarly work in this area. To accomplish this, literature related to SBE use in RT academic education published from 2012 to 2023 was reviewed and synthesized. As a result, this paper reveals patterns related to the types simulation and level of fidelity being used, targeted competencies and outcomes, the degree of success in achieving aims and how they are being studied in the context of research. Recommendations are also made for future study of notable unresolved issues in this area.

Cycling-Based Telerehabilitation: Acceptability and Feasibility Study.
JMIR Hum Factors
September 2025
Villa Beretta Rehabilitation Center, Costa Masnaga, Italy.
Background: Telerehabilitation is a promising solution to provide continuity of care. Most existing telerehabilitation platforms focus on rehabilitating upper limbs, balance, and cognitive training, but exercises improving cardiovascular fitness are often neglected.
Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of a telerehabilitation intervention combining cognitive and aerobic exercises.
Chronic Cough Hypersensitivity as a Neuropathic Disorder: Implications for Management and New Treatments.
Annu Rev Med
September 2025
3Department of Anatomy and Physiology, University of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Chronic cough can coexist with or without pulmonary and extrapulmonary conditions and can be refractory to therapies that improve these associated conditions. It is underlined by cough hypersensitivity, which is characterized by increased cough responses to stimuli that affect the airways and vagally innervated tissues as well as by excessive cough responses to innocuous stimuli, and it is caused by neuroinflammatory and neuropathic mechanisms at both peripheral and central levels. The management of chronic cough starts with exclusion of associated conditions, followed by use of neuromodulators and speech and language therapy.

Objectives: This study explores the relationship between inhaler visual identification, naming, and adherence outcomes, and evaluates the potential of combining these factors into a screening tool for identifying poor adherence.
Methods: This observational, prospective study included adult patients with COPD, asthma, or asthma+COPD who had been on chronic inhalation therapy for at least the past year. Data were collected through patient interviews and medical records.

Central nervous system (CNS) diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases, stroke, brain tumors, and others, result in poor quality of life and can cause substantial disability. Not all CNS diseases are amenable to surgical approaches, so drug development is important for disease treatment. Unfortunately, there are few drugs currently available for CNS diseases.
