Explore the intricacies of the respiratory system and its associated diseases in this comprehensive lecture. Delve into topics such as the mechanism of breathing, spirometry measurements, neural control of ventilation, gas exchange, and partial pressures. Examine the respiratory pump and its effects on venous return, as well as pulmonary hypertension. Gain insights into various respiratory disorders including COPD, asthma, pneumonia, tuberculosis, and cystic fibrosis. Through detailed animations, learn about lung volumes and capacities, restrictive and obstructive diseases, and how red blood cells carry oxygen and carbon dioxide. Investigate the pathophysiology, genetics, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatments of conditions like sinusitis and COVID-19, enhancing your understanding of respiratory health and disease management.
