Very clear explanation you are a very good teacher '

On CBC you can see: hypoxia-> EPO->secondary polycythemia 2) Emphysema-> IL-6, TNF alpha, INF gamma -> increased hepcidin -> decreased liver ferroportin-> decreased transferrin -> decreased Fe to red bone marrow -> decreased erythropoesis -> Anemia of Chronic disease So you can see on CBC either low( Anemia of chronic disease) or high(secondary polycythemia)

Awesome lectures..thanks

thank you for teaching

that was helpful thanks

As a Server COPD sufferer aged 62 who has never smoked in his life, it's helpful to understand how my body is failing. I can only conclude i must have inhaled other destructive lung function pollutants throughout my working life in the aircraft manufacture industry.

Excellent

i should pay you instead my medical school , than you so much , i dont really comment but mostly watch your videos before my lectures and it helps a lot .

good skills of teaching

Thank u so much sir..❣️

YOU ARE SO GOOD

Thanks a lot ...can u please make videos on ECG 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

You sur are awesome!!!

Nicely explain everything tht we wants know...! Nd your preference of books like harrison gives more benefits...thanks

Thank you

Very nice

Very well explained...👏👏👏

Thanks for the very informative info…I gained a lot until the last frame, when it went into the weeds in terminology!

Great explanation but I have a note on image of spirometry for restrictive lung disease which you drawen it as it shifted to the left but it actually shift to the right. thanks

When this man says "thank you for watching", I say no thank you for giving us something so vital and simply presented to watch...hats off sire

❤ thanks for the video I am moderate COPD 😮

Do a video on Narcolepsy, thanks!

I think the one that should not be used alone are the long ating beta-agonists (LABA) rather than the inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), because it is usually the ICS which are used as monotherapy especially in mild persistent cases.

My group has to do a learning resource for lysosomal storage diseases and I suggested using handwritten tutorials as the way to go. Just wondering is the paper you are writing on stuck to a wall or is it placed on a table? And do you surround the paper with lamps that illuminate the sheet? And how do you fix the camera in such a way that allows the whole page to show up in the video without shadows? I would really be grateful if you replied. Thank You and have a great day :)

Great🌼

I've been watching your series of videos - very helpful in understanding. Question: I have Pulmonary Hypertension which is being managed with my Pul Doc. Due to first PFT, (which I think I just didn't understand fully what I was supposed to do) it was claimed I had COPD due to the DLCO being low at 70%. 2nd PFT a year later showed much improvement with DLCO at 90. FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVD, TLC - all within normal range. Have never been short on 02 even when exercising. Just SOB. Wondering why now they still want to call my SOB and PH Class III due to COPD rather than PAH, or Idiopathing PH.

You guys should do something for emphysema more.

I love your explanations, can you possibly explain at a cellular level how do vitamin c and e and elderberry and zinc help build immunity in the cellular level and how can it work against viruses we encounter? Also the mechanism of green tea and Irish sea moss in the lungs. Thanks just a hopeful request.

🤯Wow, you made it so easy. Thank-you

Every medico's loveeeeeee😍😍

Nice work. I guess its from Davidson's

hello, this is an informative video on copd. my brother was also suffering from this condition. she visited many hospitals but didnt get relief. then one day she visited planet ayurveda and got copd care pack. now she is fine

but amazing video it is! 👏👏👍👌 keep making videos like this. urrgghhh reading books is such a bore. 😂😂😭😭😭

Amazing videos man. One question, I'm currently a second year medical student and at the moment studying respiration. In obstructive diseases, we find that spirometery has different results to the graphs you showed here. Due to the obstructive nature, FEV1 is reduced while FVC remains the same, in your graphs it displays an extended period of time to reach FVC (which is correct) however it shows that the FEV1 remains the same, which it doesn't. What I'm trying to say is that the amount of air exhaled in 1 second should be reduced however your graph doesn't show this. Love your videos man, really helpful :)

hey guys u do a fantastic job......i make sure that i will bring another 1000 subscribers for you

Thank you. But what about the aspect of COPD where patient's "drive to breathe" changes from O2 to CO2...in other words for some COPD patients if you increase the O2 too high then you remove their drive to breathe because CO2 is now the main drive? Hope this makes sense.

Hi, you mentioned vaccination under management.. What vaccine ? and vaccination against what?

Hi, I just wanted to clarify. You mentioned ICS are not used alone but used with LABAs. Shouldn't it be that LABA should not be used alone but always with an ICS. Thank you for your videos. They are really helpful =) You're really talented.

How can I get a PDF for this lecture??

pursed lips breathing -> inc alvealor pressure -> open alveoli -> inc gas exchnge

RV strain also caused by massive PE

My father was a smoker for forty years. He started when he was a teenager in high school in the early 1950s, and continued to smoke about a pack a day until he quit in 1995. For years he thought "You know? 1 smoked for forty years, and I got away with it !" No. No he didn't. In 2014, nineteen years after he had quit smoking, he started noticing that he was having trouble with wheezing and feeling like he was out of breath a lot. He was diagnosed with early stage COPD. For the first year, he was able to get by with simply using rescue inhalers once in a while, but by late 2015 he needed supplemental oxygen. At first, he could get by on the lowest tank setting of 1 liter per minute, but as time went on he needed an Oxygen concentrator at home and he needed more and more oxygen. Last year (2020) he was up to the oxygen concentrator's highest setting of 5 liters per minute, even while just sitting down. By this time I had moved in with him to take care of him. Sometimes he would be gasping for air, and he would ask me "Son, is the machine on? I just can't get enough air" In December my father got COVID-19, and his condition worsened, our hearts melted every moment as we watched him gasp for breath,we were sure he would die any moment, by the time I started reading KZfaq comments,I stumbled upon a comment that said there is an old Chinese man that cures this ailment ,I quickly contacted him and ordered the herbs with my father's money because he wouldn't need it anymore cos he would die any moment,I received the herbs in two days and from that moment he used the herbs, he began to feel better and better, few weeks later, he was completely cured, I thank you for reading this story about my father's experience with COPD. If you know someone who is a smoker, and you love them, please encourage them to quit. We love Daddy.all thanks to Dr Shen weng.if you have this ailment, email me on samcheng365@gmail.com and I will send you Dr Shen's contact details

Need new with latest gold guidelines 2023

Great video! my only note is that your "R"s look 100% like "M"s

Dude have you got any sister or adult daughter? I wanna marry her so I can be your relative! You literally save my life!

I want to thank Dr Madida who I met on KZfaq for curing me of Parkinson Disease.

Not sure why but this vid is very soft ): turned up volume up to 100% but still sounds very mumbled

💜💜💜🏌️‍♀️

You should have both increase in TLC and RV in obstructive lung disease... Your graph wasn't drawn correctly

Very nice
