Degenerative and Neuromuscular Disease Lab

Run a respiratory reserve monitor and watch oxygen saturation hide a failing diaphragm, practice unlimited questions at three levels, localize and sort against the clock, and work through real-life nursing scenarios with fictional patients. Nothing here is graded.

Part 1: Breathing Reserve Explorer

Teaching modelA simplified adult with neuromuscular weakness, such as Guillain-Barré syndrome or myasthenic crisis. Thresholds are the textbook teaching values (20/30/40 rule; elective intubation near FVC 15 mL/kg or NIF weaker than about −20 to −25 cm H2O). The oxygen saturation curve is illustrative, not a real prediction.
