In this episode of The APS Publications Podcast, Lajja Patel discusses the modification of wet spirometers to investigate the fundamental laws of flow and different types of lung disease. This activity involves cost-effective modifications to the wet spirometer, broadening its applicability. These modifications effectively address student challenges associated with wet spirometer handling and enhance comprehension of fluid dynamics, all without the need for costly simulations, wet experiments, or fragile instruments. By offering a hands-on experience without traditional limitations, our modified spirometer provides an accessible and engaging approach to respiratory physiology education.
