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

A summary of the first 4 videos in this series on PFT interpretation, as well as 5 practice cases which integrate PFTs with a clinical vignette and chest X-ray.

[@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!

[@joanwidmer163]

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

[@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!

[@subhankarbaidya5851]

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

[@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!

[@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!

[@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 :)

[@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.

[@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.

[@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

[@lizzann30]

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

[@brentnelson7251]

[@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 !

[@manvisingh2450]

Great lectures Dr. Eric... and LOVE the GOT references!!

[@ldl100]

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

[@sunving]

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

[@lizbethmcewan]

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

[@ntsamaisemashike4487]

thank you for the videos now feel confident enough to interpret the PFT results after months of studying it.

[@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!

[@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.

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.
