    Dear you are the common sense doctor I like and I wish I would know you more and share a lot.You said." medicine makes sense when you explain ." I liked you so much I like reading Guyton,medical physiology text book for it really make you sensible doctor.I call a bit out of fashion for I despise these question and answer type of study purly directed at passing an exam,I know some times it hurts but honestly medicine is so great that way.Thank you for your superflowing explanation with ease.

    hello dr. I hope you do answer questions here. I am having a bit of a problem in understanding why in obstructive lung diseases there is decreased ventilation. I know that it is very intuitive to understand why but I clearly recall that the problem in obstructive lung diseases was in expiration not in inspiration. Perhaps it is wrong to associate inspiration and ventilation together but for some reason I am associating them.

    I have a question in 19:14 isn't that supposed to be BRONCOconstriction instead of VASOconstriction???
    As you explain in the next sentence, the purpose is to narrow the BRONCHUS (not the VESSEL), when hypoperfussion takes place...
    Or am I wrong??? I dont know, thats why I ask my savior!

      I am sorry as I didn't properly understand your question.
      But..
      When the ventilation is decreased the body often tries to cut off blood supply to that region to prevent Ventilation perfusion mismatch, this happens through vasoconstriction - this explains why no blood flows into Fetal lungs during intra-uterine life, furthermore this vasoconstriction is responsible for right heart failure that is seen in COPD.
      Interestingly during sleep if someone has sleep apnea the lung overall recieve less oxygen, therefore there is vasoconstriction this applies stress on the right heart. You may know that in heart failure we give diuretics - so the heart secretes it' s own diuretic or ANP, this causes nocturia in patients of sleep apnea.

      Yes, you are right. At the apex of the lung both perfusion (Q) and ventilation (V) are decreased, but the decrease in Q exceeds the decrease in V, making the V/Q ratio relatively high. Otherwise, it is really a perfect video.

    Hi medicosis! i had a question about 10:48 when you mentioned emphysema leads to decreased V/Q ratio. What you say makes sense; however, everywhere online Ive seen that emphysema is an example of increased V/Q mismatch. Currently watching Dr. John B. West's resp phys lectures and he states that emphysema leads to higher V/Q inequality due to some ventilation but little perfusion in the destroyed lung tissue. Again, id like to say that both your reasoning and his makes sense to me, so its a bit difficult to piece things together lmao. Love your videos man, hope you can help!

    The V/Q mismatch will always be mismatched, the closest that we will be to attaining 100% is in the middle of the lung? @ the apex we will have a higher ratio, and @ the base a lower, ratio? So when does this become a problem if it is always mismatched?

    1- testrictive lung disease
    2 -obstructive lung disease
    3- airway collapse
    4 increasing compliance
    ?!!
    Can you give me the answer as Unfortunately I cannot answer that

    • @worldaround6520
      @worldaround6520 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I believe it is quite complex... Both emphysema and chronic bronchitis are part of COPD therefore obstructive lung disorder. In emphysema the inflammation is quite close to the blood vessels, so blood vessels get destroyed, this leads to VQ mismatch. In Pulmonary embolism blood flow stops so there is VQ mismatch.
      The topic is very vast I think. But let me give you a Mnemonic.
      In type I respiratory failure there deranged level of one gas and in type II there is deranged levels of two gases.
      How is it possible to have deranged level of only gas shouldn't the levels of two gases always be affected. If there is fluid CO2 being somewhat polar(although theoritically it has zero net dipole) is soluble in water than O2 that is non polar as it is made up of two similar atoms - the low solubility of O2 means oxygenated drinks are not popular like carbonated drinks because CO2 solubility is high.
      Okay let me try to tell you why V/Q mismatch causes type 1 respiratory failure.
      Carbon dioxide theoretically doesn't have a dipole, but it does contain polar units. This makes carbon dioxide more soluble in water, which is polar-like dissolves like. On the other hand, oxygen is made up of similar atoms and, therefore, is nonpolar. Because of its solubility, carbon dioxide doesn't need a specialized transporter such as hemoglobin. Furthermore, the presence of carbon dioxide in water means that it can be converted into bicarbonate and act as a buffer molecule to maintain a stable pH.
      Carbon dioxide can freely travel in the blood, but oxygen needs a specialized protein molecule called hemoglobin. Proteins, by nature, are very complex, and the oxygen dissociation curve follows cooperative binding.
      You can think of ventilation-perfusion mismatch as a form of faulty division of labor. Ideally, you would want the areas where ventilation is high to have high perfusion to load the right amounts of oxygen. Therefore, ventilation-perfusion mismatch is a form of faulty division of labor and is more likely to affect the oxygen dissociation curve, as it follows cooperative binding.
      Type II respiratory failure is a lot more intuitive I believe. All the best. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
      One more thing....
      Why does in obstructive lung diseases expiration is more difficult??
      This is because during inspiration lungs expand so the obstruction is somewhat relieved.

    i have a question; i always see the equation written like this: Co2 + H2O H2co3 Hco3 + H ... y does it say co2 + water if CA is removing the water to form carbonic acid?
    another question; in decreased ventilation shouldn't the PaCO2 go up? or is normal because its corrected by increased respiratory rate?

    • @worldaround6520
      @worldaround6520 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think on the contrary CA adds water to CO2.
      I remember once I was in something like a ferry at the end when I was leaving I saw that the CO2 that was coming out from the ferry was mixing with water to form this white colour Carbonic acid - if my observation is correct.

    I think your analogy, where you said that the base is more likely to suffer from infarction because it is more dependent on the blood supply, is inaccurate. The base has a higher blood supply and, therefore, is less likely to suffer if you apply the logic of higher perfusion. It is like saying a loss of $50 is a bigger issue for a rich man than for a poor man.
    In my opinion, the real reason the base is more likely to suffer from infarction is because it has higher perfusion. Coupled with the fact that, due to gravity, the weight of everything above it leads to more turbulence, higher turbulence is more likely to damage the endothelium. Therefore, there is a higher chance of clot formation, which can even embolize.
    This is my understanding; I may be wrong, but in any case, your lectures are a boon.
