Abstract:
A digital teaching material on the cardiac cycle, which discretely illustrates only the left heart system, not the right, and shows the pressure of each section clearly with an illustration of a water pipe pressure gauge, as proposed by G. Doman et al., was presented to medical students, who had not previously learned circulatory physiology. Many formative questions were also provided to promote active learning. After learning the material, the students were given an anonymous questionnaire comparing the present material with a standard textbook of physiology as the control. When asked the overall impression, 86% of the students supported the present material.
