What defines physiological dead space?
In this video, from our Blood Gas Analysis Essentials course, you'll learn about the pathophysiologic consequences of a functional state of regional lung ventilation unaccompanied by blood flow—physiological dead space.
Everything you need to know about the ventilation / perfusion (V / Q) ratio
In this video, we'll cover the anatomical and physiological factors that determine how well different parts of the lung are ventilated, key equations you need to know that describe this heterogeneity, and how this affects your clinical decision-making.
What is diffusing capacity and why is it important?
In this video, we'll take a look at the importance of diffusing capacity, as a measure of gas exchange, and consider the clinical factors that affect it.
Simplifying Fick's law and lung gas exchange
In this video, you'll learn about the impact of diffusing capacity and other factors that affect gas transfer across membranes, as well as how this relates to respiratory pathologies such as emphysema and pulmonary fibrosis.
How to calculate the fractional concentration of gases in a mixture
In this video, from our Blood Gas Analysis Essentials course, we'll take a deep dive into the fractional concentration of gases and how to calculate this important value.
How to apply the recommended PFT algorithm
Learn about the currently recommended pulmonary function test (PFT) interpretation algorithm and how to use it.
Bronchoprovocation testing
Learn how to implement important safeguards when performing bronchoprovocation tests.
Interpreting abnormal PFT patterns
Learn about the various patterns of pulmonary function test abnormalities and how to apply this knowledge when diagnosing disease.
Using the high altitude simulation test (HAST)
Learn about the physiological basis for (and interpretation of) high altitude simulation tests that are used when assessing patients who are planning for commercial air travel.
Measuring diffusing capacity
Understand diffusing capacity and how to measure it when assessing lung disease.
