Explain the effect of the distribution of ventilation and perfusion within the lungs on gas exchange, and what is meant by the terms "shunt" and "dead space"
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Explain the basic pathophysiology of the diseases which result in disturbances in gas exchange.
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Upon completion of this problem, students should be able to explain the physiological responses of the body (heart, lungs and blood) to increased demand for oxygen during exercise.
Global Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Describe the normal physiology and anatomy (where appropriate) as applied to each respirology theme (Drive to breathe; Respiratory pump and mechanics of breathing; Airflow obstruction; Lung defences, injury and inflammation; Gas exchange).
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Describe the mechanism of disease (pathophysiology, pathology) as applied to each respirology theme (Drive to breathe; Respiratory pump and mechanics of breathing; Airflow obstruction; Lung defences, injury and inflammation; Gas exchange)
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Conduct an appropriate physical exam of the respiratory system.
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Describe the factors that govern respiratory drive under normal circumstances, including central and peripheral controls.
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Explain the impact of hyper- or hypoventilation on arterial blood gas balance.
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Recognize some of the common clinical situations where alteration in drive to breathe is manifested: altitude, intentional or anxiety driven hyperventilation, chronic CO2 retention in COPD, sleep apnea, and opiate use.
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Explain the assessment of respiratory pump failure using diagnostic tests.
General Objectives
Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology
Explain the normal mechanics of lung inflation and deflation, including the role of intrapleural pressure in inflation of the lung and the role of tissue elasticity and surface tension in elastic recoil of the lung.
General Objectives
