Abstract:
We have developed an exercise designed to give students practice calculating arterial O2 content, O2 delivery, physiological dead space, dead space and alveolar ventilation, and alveolar partial pressure of O2 and CO2. The exercise is in the form of a "murder mystery" in which students are required to make these calculations to identify the murderer.
