Lung Volumes Flashcards
Tidal volumes
Normal breathing
Inspiratory reserve volume
Additional inhale after normal tidal volume
Expiratory reserve volume
Additional exhale after normal tidal volume
Residual volume
Volume of air always in the lungs
Functional residual capacity
Maximum exhale
Inspiratory capacity
Maximum inhale
Vital capacity
Total amount of air that can be expired after fully inhale (alive air)
Lung volumes for obstructive pulmonary
All volumes decrease except FRT
(Functional reserve volume, residual volume, total lung capacity)
Lung volumes for restrictive pulmonary
All lung volumes decrease
Obstructive
Cannot get air out
CBABE
cystic fibrosis, COPD, chronic bronchitis, Asthma, emphysema
Restrictive
Cannot get air in
No lung volumes increase, they all decrease
