Tom talks cardiac physiology, exploring blood pressure, Hagen–Poiseuille law, and coronary blood flow, finishing up with a brief chat of the cardiac cycle.
There is a debrief and extra detailing at the end in very quick fire ‘words that convey you know what you’re on about’ sot of standing.

Tom experiences some catecholamine release of his own in this episode as he talks serpiginous GPCRs, Adenyl cyclase, PKA and comparing local anaesthetics, and getting tied up (like we all do) with the clinically pointless, but delightfully examinable Vaughan-Williams Anti-arrythmic classes!
We Debrief and break into some of the questions as we go.
As always the show notes are on the website!

Tom dives into the critical details of how oxygen makes it to the mitochondria, tells me of this concept called shunt and then gets thoroughly beaten to shreds by the Valsalva manoeuvre - a tactical doozy that gets rolled out because it is a baffling set of steps.
Alveolar Gas Equation
Shunt
Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction
Oxygen concentration Sensing of Plasma
And the Valsalva Manoeuvre.
We Debrief and break into some of the questions as we go.

This Podcast for the FRCA Primary Exam thoroughly explores what is going on within the multi compartmental model that we use to try and comprehend how drugs move through humans.
If you like this, leave me a comment, if you don't, also leave a comment it's a rather mad one - perhaps reflected in the build up to this over the last few episodes.
