Answer: help patients recover from breathing problems.

Explanation: Respiratory therapists are healthcare professionals who assess, treat, and manage patients with breathing and cardiopulmonary disorders (administer oxygen/medications, manage ventilators, perform breathing tests, provide education). They do not design/manufacture breathing machines (that’s biomedical engineering/manufacturing), nor primarily research cures (that’s medical/research scientists), nor generally study air quality (that’s environmental/public health specialists).
