Lung Volumes and Capacities Flashcards
Tidal Volume
amount if air inhaled or exhaled each breath under resting
Inspiratory Reserve Volume
Amount of air that can forefully inhaled after normal tidal volume inspiration
Expiratory Reserve Volume
Anount of air that can be forcefully expired after normla tidal volume expiration
Resiudal Volume
Amount of Air remaining in the lungs after a forced expiration
Functional Residual Capacity
Volume of air remaing in the lungs after normla tidal volume expiration
Inspiraty Capacity
Maximum amount of air that can be inpsired after normal tidal expiration
Vital Capacity
Maxium amount of air that can expired after max inspirtory effort
Total Lung Capacity
AMx amount of air contained in lungs after a maximum inspiratory effoer
What is Obstrucite Disease
increases ristance to airflow
* TLC FRC RV increase
Restrictive Disease
Decreased Ability for lungs to expand
* VC,TLC<FRC< RV decline
