The aim of the course:
This lesson introduces the students to pulmonary function tests. The students will perform a variety of pulmonary measurements such as: Tidal volume, Inspiratory capacity, Expiratory capacity, Functional residual capacity, Vital capacity and Total lung capacity. The lesson demonstrates how to record and analyze Forced Vital Capacity, Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV 1,2,3) and Maximal Voluntary Ventilation (MVV).
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : This lesson introduces the students to pulmonary function tests1 - 3 - 51,2,3
PO - 2 : Be familiar with spirometry test1 - 3 - 51,2,3
PO - 3 : Knows control of respiration1 - 3 - 51,2,3
PO - 4 : Knowns gas exchange in the lungs1 - 3 - 51,2,3
PO - 5 : Can interperete the interdependence between the respiratory functions and the exercise capacity1 - 3 - 51,2,3
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome

 
Contents of the Course
Pulmonary physiology is one of the most important areas of human function - and it is also one of the most interesting. As in the case of the heart/circulation, we are presented with a pump and its associated plumbing through which a mixture of gases flow. Many of the same physical principles apply in the two systems. Structure and function of the lungs; mechanics of respiration; ventilation and lung volumes; pulmonary blood flow; diffusion of gases; ventilation perfusion relationship; control of respiration; respiration of unusual environment; pulmonary function tests; respiratory failure
