Background:
Dynamic nutrition education strategies may help prepare physicians to provide nutrition guidance to patients.
Activity:
We pilot tested a nutrition-focused iBook chapter with a group of medical students and residents (June 2017) through pre and post-test Qualtrics surveys.
Results:
All 29 respondents recognized the role of nutrition in medical care. Two-thirds reported some nutrition training in their medical education; nearly 90% reported this training was inadequate. Few (17%) reported reading scholarly nutrition articles; 84% reported they would recommend the iBook to their peers.
Conclusions:
An iBook is a resource that could be used to teach nutrition to medical trainees.

They comprehensively evaluate lung volumes, ventilatory function, breathing mechanics, diffusion, and gas exchange. These tests help diagnose pulmonary diseases and play a significant role in monitoring disease progression, evaluating disability, and assessing response to therapy.
