Enhancing respiratory physiology education: innovative wet spirometer modifications for hands-on learning
In this study, the wet spirometer has been modified to investigate the fundamental laws of flow and different types of lung disease. This modification was achieved by changing the dimensions of the device, printing a scale on the bell, and attaching an airflow control system (ACS) between the corrugated tube and hollow tube of the inner cylinder. The ACS allowed for flow control during the exercises. Two exercises were performed: Exercise I compared the parameters measured by the wet spirometer, modified spirometer, and computerized spirometer to determine the suitability of the modification, while Exercise II tested the v...

Tangible impact of patient communication modules on medical students and interns
The objective of this study was to ascertain the perceptible qualitative influence of the modules in communication in the AETCOM course and to obtain feedback on its implementation. In this cross-sectional study, the attitude of medical students in all stages of training including internship was first explored using a Communication Skills Attitude Scale (CSAS). Out of 27 modules in AETCOM course, five modules named foundations of communication deal with communication and they are taught from the first to final professional years of training. After introducing communication modules in AETCOM for all professional years, feed...

CARBGAME ("CArd & amp; Board GAmes in Medical Education") - A Gamification Innovation to foster active learning in Biochemistry for Medical Students
Adv Physiol Educ. 2023 Dec 7. doi: 10.1152/advan.00214.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiving into the realm of game-based learning, the "CARBGAME"- CARd & Board GAmes in Medical Education is an innovative series of games that reimagines the way medical students learn complex but essential chapters. In the pilot study, there was a highly significant improvement in the academic performance of students in the chapter 'Vitamins'. All the students perceived CARBGAME to be highly rewarding in terms of creating engaging and meaningful learning experiences. Recognizing the benefit of games in medical education, we strongl...

A low-cost 2D sarcomere model to demonstrate titin related mechanisms for force production
Adv Physiol Educ. 2023 Dec 7. doi: 10.1152/advan.00090.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGiven the recently proposed three-filament theory of muscle contraction, we present a low-cost physical sarcomere model aimed at illustrating the role of titin in the production of active force in skeletal muscle. Using inexpensive materials, it is possible to illustrate actin-myosin cross-bridge interactions between the thick and thin filaments and demonstrate the two different mechanisms by which titin is thought to contribute to active and passive muscle force. Specifically, the model illustrates how titin, a molecule with spring-...
