The book does not go into detail about lung compliance vs. elasticity. I did not realize that they were indirectly related before this video, but now it makes complete sense. I like how you compared them to rubber bands because this helped me understand it even better.
Thank you for mentioning the rubber band first, then going through the actual diseases. The rubber band was a simple way to be able to understand the difference between compliance and elastance. Having a good understanding of the rubber band facilitated it for me to understand the difference between emphysema and P.F because I had trouble remembering which one was which.
Worth mentioning how effortlessly you are able to write the mirror images. I had to watch the video twice, cuz the first time i was busy focussing on how you write😮
I like the comparisons you had with our lungs to rubber bands and to our skin and scabs to explain certain aspects of the lungs and its compliance and elastance.
I like how you provided analogies to help visualize the concept of compliance and elasticity. For instance, since I can recall how a balloon expands and contracts, I can also visualize this movement in the lung itself. Same goes for the thick and thin rubber band analogy to visualize recoil.
The comparison of elastance to the rubber band really helped me understand what it was. I would love to see more comparisons like this in future videos, to understand the mechanisms easier.
It's very helpful that I can go back and forth in the video to make sure I understand something before moving on. I like how you explained these definitions and correlated them with the disease they're related to.
I appreciate how you organized the information on the board. Your explanations were great and I like how you went over the diseases that can arise. Please continue to make these clinical correlations!
I like how you explained the difference between compliance and elastance so clear and straightforward. The rubber band analogy helped me a lot in understanding these concepts! thank you.
I think that the rubber band and balloon analogies were very helpful to understanding the definitions behind these two terms. It also made it easy to understand how one reacts with another.
I was watching the video on spirometry and realized I was not clear on the concept of compliance or elastance so I clicked over to this video and after watching I have a better understanding and I am able to make sense of the spirometer video. The balloon and rubber band helped me understand the physiological component.
The balloon and rubber band examples were fantastic. They relate perfectly, the lungs need to get bigger like a balloon, so they expand through increased compliance. The lungs recoil, so the speed of them coming together (elastance) is like a rubber band due to its resistance.
I liked the analogies you used. It helps me remember and visualize how there terms work together. It was also helpful to hear the examples because it allows me to understand how this would work and the abnormalities with it. Thanks!
I always got these 2 concepts mixed up but after watching the video, I feel like I won't get them confused anymore. I think your analogies really help me understand the concepts because it just relates them to things that we are used to seeing everyday and it's easier to familiarize everything.
I appreciated the analogies in order for me to better understand the material, and I am less likely to get confused when I can relate it to a real life example.
The analogies were very helpful, as you compared compliance and elastance to everyday concepts people will understand. Also, I liked how you included the pathological conditions as it allowed me to apply the concepts.
I like that you made a video about these two terms because the distinction can be a little confusing. I especially liked the rubber band analogy and how you related them to specific diseases. The significance of arthritic ribs was a little unclear to me, but I think I can infer your point about that.
This topic was difficult for me to understand in class but the comparisons you made between the two make it easier to understand. I like how you described different pathological conditions for each.
