| what is the tidal volume? |
|
Definition
| amnt of air inspired and expired with every normal breath |
|
|
Term
| how much is the avg tidal volume? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| what is inspiratory reserve volume? |
|
Definition
| the extra volume of breath that can be inspired after normal tidal volume inhaled |
|
|
Term
| how do you calculate inspiratory reserve volume? |
|
Definition
| Vital capacity-(tidal vol + exp. reserve vol) |
|
|
Term
| what is expiratory reserve volume? |
|
Definition
| extra volume of air that could still be exspired beyond normal tidal volume |
|
|
Term
| how do you calculate expiratory reserve volume? |
|
Definition
| vital capacity- (tidal volume + insp reserve vol) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| the volume of air remaining in the lungs after maximal expiration |
|
|
Term
| how do you calculate residual volume? |
|
Definition
| total lung capacity-vital capacity |
|
|
Term
| what is total lung capacity? |
|
Definition
| maximal volume to which the lungs can be expanded with the greatest possible inspiratory volume |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| maximal expiration following a maximal inspiration |
|
|
Term
| how do you calculate vital capacity? |
|
Definition
| total lung capacity-residual volume |
|
|
Term
| what is functional residual capacity? |
|
Definition
| amount of air remaining in lungs after normal expiration |
|
|
Term
| what is the difference between residual volume and functional residual capacity? |
|
Definition
| both are volumes of air left in lungs after expiration, but residual is after a MAXIMAL expiration and Functional residual is after NORMAL expiration |
