Seriously, what do schools have against speaking like a normal person? Hearing these capacities and volumes in simple terms makes them so much easier to understand, especially when you have to explain the results back to the patient!

I know right.. 😂😂😂😂

[@hamstereatingcarrots4152]

REAL!

[@Uniquemade_1]

This video was very detailed. My professor took 4 hours to explain this in which I didn't understand, while this only took 20 minutes for you to explain and I fully comprehend. Thank you, you are most definitely a life saver.

[@jessicasharpe1925]

Courtney Jordan yess same! 5 hrs of lecture and in 1 hr he explained it all more succinctly and clearly.

[@jilanza1664]

having sat through 3 hours of med school lectures on this concept, I can say that you not only crushed this topic in 22 minutes, but you have made this EASY. Thank you thank you.

This channel is fantastic. Myself and my three roomies are med students and use all your videos as great review tools in preparation for exams. Succinct and to the point! Why cant all professors teach like that? Keep us the awesome work

[@rpersonalemail9068]

thanks for explaining this. you may not be able to work math out in your head but you have the gift of teaching. very helpful, thank you. keep up the good work!

[@rpersonalemail9068]

Hi Ninja, will there be a video on Alveolar ventilation and Total Pulmonary ventilation?

[@NinjaNerdOfficial]

+Reynaldo PersonalEmail We have many more videos in our respiratory playlist!!! Be sure to check them out!

[@sunnytime9471]

Math is evil lol

I think he's just messing around when he says he's not good at math lol.. I lightly doubt it I think he's just trying to make sure he doesn't give us the wrong numbers.

How did you do if you dont mind me asking

[@marcykeithley1085]

Nicely done. I am a respiratory therapist and I have worked in the PFT function lab doing spirometery and pulmonary function tests for over 30 years. This is one of the most misunderstood and underrated diagnostic tests ever. 👌

I've finally understood this when my Physiology exam is just 12hours due...Thank you Ninja, I really appreciate!!!

[@Irina01227]

The definitions that my professor gave me were so complicated and they all sounded pretty much the same. Zach just came in and enlightened me like it was child's play. You're truly impressive, sir.

[@elissaworkman534]

Thank you! There is no better feeling than understanding! I was really feeling discouraged. Now, to watch the next video.

[@ashleighdrake1621]

I love his teaching style! I wish I had him as a professor in person. Thank you for this video!

[@hannahhudson4104]

Have a Respiratory physiology exam tomorrow. Watched your breathing mechanics videos, your compliance and elasticity videos, and finally this lung vol and capacity video and it helped SO MUCH. You truly are an amazing teacher. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain thing so well!

[@joshuawattay6725]

My girlfriend is battling through PA School virtually (primarily) right now, and these video lectures have been a lifesaver. Thank you for breaking these concepts down into terms that are easier to understand!!

[@dania1145]

Excellent! It took me 12 years to finally understand this! Each time I would learn it, I forgot it, but it sticks now...Thank you! Thank you!

[@colleenmangels2355]

I am a PTA student getting ready to take my boards, this has been one of the more challenging subjects for me. This video really broke it down and made it make sense! Thank you !!

[@stronger3381]

Video keypoints: -peak- Tvi (inspiration) / Tve (expiration). -normal 500 ml + forceful inspiration -> inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) (2800-3100 ml) (5800-3000) -forcefully exhale -> expiratory reserve volume (ERV) (1200 ml) -tidal volume - ~500 ml (in and out) -Air remains in lungs, so they don't colapse (alveoli remain open). -> Residual volume (RV) (1200 ml) -Inspiratory capacity- IC- total volume you can bring in. Tidal volume(i) + IRV = 500 ml + 2800 ml = 3300 ml -Expiratory capacity- EC- amount of air you can breathe out. Tidal volume (e) + ERV = 500 ml + 1300 ml = 1800 ml -Functional residual capacity- FRC-- in normal breathing the air in the lungs is ERV + RV = 1300 ml + 1200 ml = 2500 ml -Vital capacity- VC- Tidal volume + IRV + ERV = 500 ml + 2800 ml + 1300 ml = 4600 ml -Total lung capacity- TLC- Tidal volume + IRV + ERV + RV- total volume lungs occupy. = 5800 ml Test- forced spirometry - next video in detail. Determine pulmonary function- restriction/obstruction. -> If you found this resume useful, subscribe to my channel :)

[@rogermoore7754]

Wow!! You have simplified something so complex (or so I thought ) into an amazing 22- minute video. Thank you so much!! You are a Rockstar!!

Looking at a spirogram was initially quite daunting, but your explaination was clear and easy to understand. Thank you!!!

Thank you so much for such a wonderful, easy to understand explanation.

I appreciate you and your team so, so much. Much love!

I love you sooooo much Team Ninja herd. Med school is easy just because of you. You're helping us become great doctors with better understanding of the concept in simple language.

This was great! We are six lectures behind in A&P2 and have only three lecture classes left till finals. Our lesson was basically, "here, learn this". Thank you!

[@xxmaggie20xx]

Thank you!!!! for all your videos and for going in depth in different subjects, and making them easier to understand in order to memorize.

[@MrArunjot]

very efficiently explained. I never had a chance where I need to rewind the video to understand again, it was going so smooth and simple.

[@Cass_i]

Simplicity is just the way to go sometimes, ya know? This was a really great video. Really helping me with my studied in med school

[@kriti1466]

literally the best video so far! you are excellent at pedagogy too!

[@caroljackson767]

Thank you so much Zachary! I just couldn’t get this concept before. You make it make sense!

[@garlicgirl3149]

What I don't understand about our education system from preschool to PhD, why are educators required to have so many degrees and still cannot teach effectively. I had someone tell me you needed a degree because otherwise are not a good educator. NOT TRUE! I had an English teacher in high school say you don't truly understand something unless can explain in simple terms. This is it here! I have had professors with doctorates and no one by the end of class understood a word. I just don't understand. This is what a teacher exemplifies. Fantastic class.

[@janekim5137]

watching you do the maths on that board and telling us you can't do maths in your head kinda relieves me. Medical people really do suck at maths. hahahahah But do know you are a really good teacher. I can't thank you enough for helping me get through my med and premed school.

[@pigma98]

Thank you so much! I'm taking physiology now & even though my professor explained it pretty well, your video really helped to put it all together for me.
