7:42 there were also serious treatment related events of about the same magnitude, so to me it's a bit of a wash. You can bump up the immune system with nutrition to protect better against severe rsv but you can't necessarily prevent side effects of the antibody shot. 15:43 50mmHg is mild/moderate hypercapnia, to suggest intubation sounds ridiculous (given how severe of a procedure that is) I'm reading asthma guidelines and it sounds like fear mongering. When I am sedentary for a while I frequently feel the need to breathe rapidly (I would say easily 30 per minute), which goes away after working out a little bit. Coincidentally, exercise significantly raises cortisol and epinephrine, exactly the same as the two medications to treat asthma: corticosteroids and beta receptor agonists which nor/epinephrine targets. Exercise also raises tissue and brain co2, which might also relieve high breathing rate. According to guidelines I would already have a 'acute severe asthma attack' at 25 breaths a minute, because I used to have asthma as a child. Asthma deaths at US schools is less than 2 per year from 1990 to 2003. I mean it can't get any rarer. Looking at all the asthma medications, which all simulate exercise induced changes, you'd think the treatment for asthma is exercise (and cause, lack thereof) 22:48 another ridiculous criteria: if a patient has nocturnal waking on any night, then they have persistent asthma? You can wake for a million reasons not related to asthma.

[@AJsMnemonics]

Thank you for your ocmments!!! I really appreciate them!

[@alih6953]

God Bless you! Please post Pdf Emergency Medicine on your website? The marker Q55-77 blocks the view to see explanations

[@AJsMnemonics]

I am working on that right now!!

[@ahababkhan6803]

Hello dr doctor thanks a lot your videos are very helpful in my presentation and can you please tell how to get pdf from it and others too

[@AJsMnemonics]

www.AJmonicsPDF.com let me know if you have an issue or if it's too much

[@Sam-qv8dq]

Hey! Confused about question 79. Is it not upper airway cough syndrome? How do you differentiate between acute bronchitis v/s UACS?

[@Sam-qv8dq]

Is the only difference the timeline? UACS is chronic/subacute (3wks and above) v/s acute bronchitis (few days-week).

[@BD2024xx]

Yeah I am confused about this too. I think its timeline. Bronchitis occurs within a week or two of URI or never resolves, while UACS is more like weeks-month after having URI

[@alih6953]

Hello the pdfs on your website are they gone?

[@AJsMnemonics]

Will be updated very very soon!

[@Aya-ed7ye]

very nice, but these questions from what reference?

[@AJsMnemonics]

all over

[@kakossniper]

Do you have one for step 1 ?

[@AJsMnemonics]

not yet =(

[@SleepyEngi]

How did I end up on this video? It was just open in a tab and I have no memory of it lol

[@Xyz-jg2fo]

Please upload reviews for step 1

[@AJsMnemonics]

That is my plan - but I may produce step 3 first, we'll see..

[@Jerry_70707]
