total minute ventilation dead space tidal volume

Residual volume expressed as percent of TLCĪctual volume of the lung including the volume of the conducting airway.įorced vital capacity: the determination of the vital capacity from a maximally forced expiratory effortįorced expiratory volume (time): a generic term indicating the volume of air exhaled under forced conditions in the first t seconds Tidal volume: that volume of air moved into or out of the lungs during quiet breathing (VT indicates a subdivision of the lung when tidal volume is precisely measured, as in gas exchange calculation, the symbol TV or V T is used.)įunctional residual capacity: the volume in the lungs at the end-expiratory position Vital capacity: the volume of air breathed out after the deepest inhalation. Inspiratory vital capacity: the maximum volume of air inhaled from the point of maximum expiration

Inspiratory capacity: the sum of IRV and TV Inspiratory reserve volume: the maximal volume that can be inhaled from the end-inspiratory level

Residual volume: the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a maximal exhalationĮxpiratory reserve volume: the maximal volume of air that can be exhaled from the end-expiratory position Tidal volume: that volume of air moved into or out of the lungs during quiet breathing (TV indicates a subdivision of the lung when tidal volume is precisely measured, as in gas exchange calculation, the symbol TV or V T is used.) Total lung capacity: the volume in the lungs at maximal inflation, the sum of VC and RV.
