Respiratory Module

$58.00

The Respiratory Module provides experiential education for pre-health professions students by applying the student’s basic science knowledge to the pathophysiology of scenario-based respiratory problems and their treatment. Basic science correlates to clinical medicine include:

Cellular respiration as it relates to cellular function in aerobic and anaerobic states
Partial pressures of gasses in the atmosphere
Diffusion of O₂ and CO₂ between the vascular and intracellular environments
Physiology of CO₂ as a trapped (dissolved) gas in the body, and Henry’s Law
Bicarb as a buffer in the body, and the relevance of the carbonic acid equilibrium
Mechanics of breathing
The effect of air movement as the caliber of a conduit (airway) changes
