It relates perfectly because the experts of respiratory therapy are usually dealing with patients that can’t breathe or are having blockage in their lungs. The exmaple could be in an emergency room where a person cannot breathe and the therapists checks the volume of oxygen in the patient and his lungs to see if there is something blocking the airways
