I have always hated respiratory system because I could never understand one concept of it but today for the first time I enjoyed reading respiratory system....I'm a postintern I wish I had discovered your channel earlier....I would have had better understanding at things but I'm glad I discovered it today... Thank You would be a small word for you Doc....lots of respect to you❤

When there is an infarcted area in the lungs does it not reduce the surface area available for gas exchange ?

The answer to the question at the last - Restrictive Lung Disease secondary to some neuromuscular disorder( extra thoracic RLD) , with h/o impotency, dry mouth, ptosis, i m guessing

[@biswadipsaha2318]

I m guessing Mysthenia gravis , Anti Ach Antibodies in post synaptic neuron ch. The reason of infertility is i guess due to decreased performance owning to Respiratory problems

[@rosemary81812]

Will vaping before test effect the test or dclo levels?

[@je6874]

Why do they say low DLCO when more CO is returned? Semantics but annoying.

[@estherssebbowa3043]

Great video - Questions complex - unable to connect all the dots 1 a - Acetyl choline autoantibodies - 2A - 3C --> not sure if 2 weeks in coal is enough for pneumoconiosis also DLCO is normal - please confirm your answers " humbly" Thank you again

Hello please where can I find equal pressure point explained if u can help me ?

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

What do you mean by “equal pressure point”?

[@mvrmbbs]

A doubt, in case of kyphoscoliosis we do note a hypercapnia which is due to hypoventilation as the lung as restriction. In your video you mentioned that theres no issue in gas exchange. Kindly enlighten me

Y i found this channel so late 😔

[@HamdaElnagar]

بس ايه الفرق بينه وبين coefficient co?

[@TheWalrusRamrizzle]

4:10 Doesn't emphysema increase the surface area of alveoli?

[@WhyNot-si4pj]

Emphysema results in impaired alveolar inflation & recoil secondary to loss of elastic fibers . So poor ventilation of permanently distended alveoli is evident due to airway OBSTRUCTION during INSPIRATION ! Hence emphysema is classified as a COPD & the exchange of gases at the (alveolar-capillary interface) is MINIMAL !

[@TheWalrusRamrizzle]

@@WhyNot-si4pj Thanks

[@ThatsWhy-]

@@WhyNot-si4pj obstructed by what??

[@WhyNot-si4pj]

Impaired alveolar inflation & recoil ! When I was back in the medical school , I though emphysema would be a RESTRICTIVE rather than an OBSTRUCTIVE lung disease . BUT the prominent pulmonary obstruction during EXPIRATION put emphysema in the category of obstructive lung disease , as the modern definition of obstructive lung disease defines it as markedly reduced FEV1/FVC during expiration .

[@nsas955]

Thank you but I wonder is it not CO toxic !!!?

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

It’s the dose that makes the poison!

[@minaalishaikh2493]

I. A 2: F 3: C ?

[@Dr_Dubey]

Its an Extrinsic Disease like Myasthenia. Due to antibodies against post synaptic Ach receotors. Screened using a CxR for a Thymoma and managed by Plasmapheresis, Pyridostigmine Am I correct ?

[@salmaam604]

Confused about how pulmonary infarct would cause high DLCO, particularly with P.E. being the most common cause of pulmonary infarct. Wouldn't the decrease in functional lung volume reduce DLCO? Sorry in advance if I'm being a dunce!

[@gayathrijinesh3004]

What is "L" in DLCO?

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

Lung

[@beverlyhills5843]

مش على بعضك دكتورنا. صوتك زعلان. الله لا يجيب لك الزعل 🌹

[@WhyNot-si4pj]

Diffusion LUNG capacity for carbon monoxide ! The letter C in (DLCO) is an overlap of both Cs for " capacity " & " carbon " .
