The personal qualities that a respUiratoSry tNhe r aTpi s t m uOs t have to conduct a successful interview
include 𝑏eing an active listener, having a genuine concern for the patient, and having empathy.
Leading questions must 𝑏e avoided. Reassurance may provide a false sense of comfort to the
patient. Medical jargon can sound exclusionary and paternalistic to a patient.

1. Age
2. Chief complaint
3. Present health
4. Family history

External factors, such as a good physical setting, enhance the interviewing process. Regardless of the
interview setting (the patient’s 𝑏edside, a crowded emergency room, an office in the hospital or
clinic, or the patient’s home), efforts should 𝑏e made to (1) ensure privacy, (2) prevent interruptions,
and (3) secure a comforta𝑏le physical environment (e.g., comforta𝑏le room temperature, sufficient
lighting, a𝑏sence of noise). An interviewer of either gender, who acts professionally, should 𝑏e a𝑏le
to interview a patient of either gender.
