Define 'Tidal volume V(T)'
The amount of gas inspired and expired during a normal respiration
The amount of gas inspired and expired during a normal respiration
Tidal volume
Define 'Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV)'
The maximum amount of gas that can be inspired after a normal inspiration
The maximum amount of gas that can be inspired after a normal inspiration
Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV)
Define 'Inspiratory capacity'. How is it calculated?
The maximum amount of air that can be inspired after a normal expiration

= IRV + V(T)
The maximum amount of air that can be inspired after a normal expiration
Inspiratory capacity
Define 'Expiratory reserve volume (ERV)'
The maximum amount of gas that can be expired at the end of a normal expiration
The maximum amount of gas that can be expired at the end of a normal expiration
Expiratory reserve volume (ERV)
Define 'Vital capacity (VC)'
The amount of air that can be expired after a maximal inspiration
The amount of air that can be expired after a maximal inspiration
Vital capacity (VC)
Define 'residual volume'
The amount of air that remains in the lungs after a maximal expiration'
The amount of air that remains in the lungs after a maximal expiration
Residual volume
How do you estimate residual volume in males?
(2.7 * Height) + (0.017 * Age) - 3.45
How do you estimate residual volume in females?
(3.2 * Height) + (0.009 * Age) - 3.9
Define 'Functional residual capacity'
The total air remaining in the lungs after a normal expiration
The total air remaining in the lungs after a normal expiration
Functional residual capacity
V(2) = V(1) * [P(1)/T(1) * T(2)/P(2)]
