Teaching model for ventilation and perfusion mismatching
Create a model for teaching different outcomes of ventilation and perfusion mismatching
Project Overview
During medical school, students are taught about the importance of ventilation/perfusion mismatching and the effects it has on the body. Oftentimes, the students have a difficulty understanding that a high Ventilation/Perfusion (V/Q) ratio leads to dead space ventilation, or wasted ventilation, and that a low V/Q can lead to hypoxemia, which is a condition where there is low oxygen concentrations in the blood. A model representing the mechanisms underlying ventilation/perfusion mismatching would help students understand this concept.
