Count to 10 - Anaesthetic Primary Podcast
Sweet Dreams Anaesthesia
CT10 is a Anaesthetic Primary Podcast series. We discuss various topics ranging from physiology, pharmacology, clinical measurement and equipment that are relevant to Anaesthesia training in Australia and New Zealand. Our aim is to share knowledge that can help medical and nursing staff working in anaesthesia.

EP6 – V/Q Relationships | Anaesthetic Primary Topic | Respiratory Physiology | CT10
Today's podcast delves into V/Q relationships, closing capacity, dead space types, shunt, and ventilation-perfusion inequalities. They discuss regional ventilation variations, West Zones in the lung, factors affecting dead space, venous admixture, and shunt equation. The episode explores closing capacity, gas trapping, and venous admixture impact on oxygenation, providing key insights for clinical practice.

EP1 - Control of Ventilation | Anaesthetic Primary Topic | Respiratory Physiology | CT10
Explore the control of ventilation in respiratory physiology, including central and peripheral chemoreceptors. Learn about receptors in respiratory regulation and the effects of anesthesia on ventilation. Discover mechanisms of ventilation control in the body and the impact of drugs like opioids. Dive into regulating CO2 levels and the role of carbon dioxide in maintaining ventilation.
