Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT): Lesson 5 - Summary and Practice Cases

[@murtadhaalshara3739]

This is one of the best educational videos I’ve ever watched in my life

[@MayuraVyamsaka]

I feel at least 500% more confident with PFTs now that I watched this series. Seems to be the trend whenever I watch your videos. Seriously, can't thank you enough for the high quality teaching!

[@StrongMed]

You are very welcome!

[@joshkb]

HAHAHA easter egg: ned stark the smoker, danaerys targayen the animal trainer, bran stark with spinal cord injury, cersei lannister with autoimmune disease, robert baratheon the obese man well done Dr Eric!! loved the extremely informative and entertaining video! thank you!

[@Merima28]

Joshua Koh - YES I just realised who ever published these videos is a fan of George R R Martin👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@christenes9966]

So much lol!

[@joanwidmer163]

This was an excellent series. Information was effectively and efficiently presented. Case studies pulled it all together. Loved the diagnostic algorithm.

[@brentnelson7251]

One of the best educational videos I've seen on KZbin

[@subhankarbaidya5851]

You Sir, are a gem. Finally, found a channel I was in dire need for a long time. Can't thank you enough.

[@glennge1039]

You are a legend for making this very educational and concise PFT explanation. Thank you so much!

[@hoscos68]

Thanks! Awesome stuff Dr.Strong!

[@StrongMed]

Thank you kindly!

[@bdm993]

Loved how Daenerys is an animal trainer, Bran has a spinal injury and Baratheon is obese =)) the last one in particular really cracked me up. Also, thank you so much for all your hard work!! It's incredible how well taught these videos are. And solving the cases gave me great confidence. I never really liked pneumology before (im a 4th year medical student - out of 6 years overall) but now I actually find it quite entertaining and fun - after 2 hours of your video series and a great cup of coffee. You really are inspiring - I think it's quite something to make a student so enthusiastic about a subject :)

[@RonnySchmidt80]

i watched your series on pft's and thanks to your simple algorythm i had no problems evaluating the cases, thank you very much!

[@OSVALDOMARIANONETO]

Excelent video! I used it to compare my results and the doctor results among which one of the spirometry test's. Such a good talent to explain!

[@sunving]

Thank you very much Dr Strong. This is second time that I listened to this seri , I nearly don’t want to because it is boring subject ,in the end I understand and can interpret this PFT. I cannot thank you enough. From nearly zero to be able to interpret !

[@kfreshn]

dude you are the man!! thanks so much! all your vids have helped tremendously in reviewing content from the first 2 years of med school for boards - your work is greatly appreciated!

[@lidocaine7170]

Cannot put into words how helpful this series was; super apt coupled with excellent understanding pattern and case studies. Just perfect. Thank you so much Sir.

[@ldl100]

Thank you for such a clear explanation of PFT's that even a cardiologist can understand! Will share with my colleagues.

[@fmehdawi]

Awesome! The very useful practical cases along with your wonderful explanations have made your videos priceless. Thanks so much. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@visunarayanan6588]

Long time viewer, I just wanted to say how useful these are Dr Strong! You have an amazing talent for teaching

[@StrongMed]

Thanks for the comment and kind words! I'm very glad you've found the videos to be helpful!

[@lizbethmcewan]

The clinic cases are the best way to say "this is the end". Thank you!

[@amitabhsagar]

excellent, simple explanation of the concepts. Going through all 5 videos in sequence , one is sure to understand and interpret the PFTS on the bedside also !! Thank you very much

[@pollywiggl]

I found this super helpful. I have a final exam on Saturday and the lecture given by my professor was not comprehensive enough. Thank you so much for doing the case studies since application is important to understanding.

[@sunving]

Thank you Dr Eric Strong. This one is very good ,made me understand this PFT thing . You are excellent teacher.

[@ayoubwani259]

[@victoriastephen264]

Dr Strong, thank you so much for this video series.

[@lizzann30]

Love this series! Thank you so much for making this an easier topic to understand.

[@alexanderfrost2943]

I can't thank you enough for your really clear presentation. I wish that in the near future you could also have a separate video for just the practice cases with and some discussion. Again thank you very much.

[@moghira1]

Very well explained, very easy to remember. The presentations of cases added a lot to fixing of the lesson . Well done ,. Thank you very much.

[@mycroftskoliber]

Very helpful video. I also appreciate the humour with the patients names. :)

[@swarmy9459]

Thank you very much. My Professor sucked at explaining. You are Great

[@Doc-MG]

i agree with the others - great clear series building on each step and then the cases to make you practice assessments. Please do more !

[@plcncar1]

The cases are good teaching tools for students in the respiratory therapy program. They are not basic and straightforward, but require critical analysis to put the various factors together.

[@sufamily123]

Thanks for the clear explanation. It is very helpful.

[@semana16pauli31]

Excellent video! It was brief and precise to learn. Thank you

[@cs9742]

I love the videos! Great addition to my classroom lecture!

[@Ife-z6d]

Thank you so much. This video helped me so much❤️❤️❤️ God bless you

[@nabilalk]

Outstanding explanations, clearly discussed in a step-by-step fashion. My only critique would be if you could point out when to use the pre/post percent predicted, however this has possibly been covered earlier in the video series. Thank you!

[@rosannesuraya3214]

Thank youu very much for the excellent video.I have finally understood spirometry

[@annawisniewska11]

[@neelsnehal3501]

Thanku so much

[@luckypenny4263]

Great review course thanks. Can you do some discussions on the new lung rads guidelines with tumors images. And thoracic pet scan course ?

[@ren_dezvous]

Excellent work!

[@AAbe-ii6cb]

I have a quick question regarding case 1, you said that if patient has a normal or elevated FVC this suggests obstruction ( in the flow chart around 8:39 minutes). However, in Lesson 2 (spirometry video),, you are saying that a person with obstruction will have a normal or decreased FVC. I think I am missing something...Can you help me clarify this. I know that in obstructive disease FVC can stay normal or can decrease. I am thinking that in both Obstructive and restrictive diseases, FVC can go down, although to different extent, thus we should look at the TLC in addition to the FEV1/FVC ratio to see what we are dealing with. So my question really is why can the FVC go up in obstructive disease as you pointed at 8:39 minutes. Thank you so much for your help.

[@fatimaghaffar2916]

I have the same question.....

[@gmieomvan6833]

Dr. Strong, when you draw the flow volume loops for the restrictive patient in case 2, should the patient's outline be shifted rightwards? Having it near the left end of the graph makes it appear that the patient has a massive residual volume and normal TLC. Thank you for the videos, you are a very gifted teacher!

[@waqqashanafi]

I also noticed that. It should be shifted to the right.

[@lamiaki]

Excellent Presentation Sir.

[@andrrrrrrea]

140% helpful. Thank you!

[@jeajea]

great video and explanations

[@user-jc5vf2hm7h]

Nice one sir ❤️

[@dactaramma]

LIFE SAVING VIDEO. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

[@lanicej5172]

The 5 videos are super! especially the practice cases. Case 1 is most consistent with Euron Greyjoy, skinny and hyperinflated lungs... The Animal Trainer interstitial picture, would that be similar to damage from particulates, especially chronic exposure to high levels of smoke?

[@salarkhabat1365]

simple and intelligent explanation, thank you

[@namaaamanaa1695]

thank so much for your invaluable video

[@RJ-gb9ik]

Fantastic stuff! Job well done. thanks!!!!

[@ryanhoyle5389]

Wonderful series. Thank you so much :)

[@lanicej5172]

Super especially the Cases, however Case 5 especially x-ray was in reality probably Euron Grayjoy, with a skinny hyper-inflated chest, not Ned Stark!! As for the animal trainer, would the case be similar with chronic inhalation of particulates, especially close proximity to burning?

[@lydianagib2606]

Thank you so much for this, brilliant cases :)

[@pikapo9095]

I watched this part only since my exam is tomorrow but it was really helpful! Thank you so much

[@zupinu2000]

how did you do?

[@kikiriki772]

This was very helpful. Thank you very much

[@Taqi-u9y]

Great explanation ♥️🔥👌🏻
