Q

What is the expiratory reserve volume?

Description

A

Extra volume of air that can be actively expired by maximal contraction beyond normal volume of air after a resting tidal volume

17
Q

What is the residual volume?

Description

A

Minimum volume of air remaining in the lungs even after a maximal expiration

18
Q

What is the functional residual capacity?

Description

A

The volume of air in the lungs at the end of normal passive expiration (not maximum)
Residual volume plus expiratory reserve volume

19
Q

What is the vital capacity?

Description

A

The maximum volume of air that can be moved out of lungs during a single breath following maximal inspiration.
Tidal volume plus Inspiratory reserve volume plus expiratory reserve volume

20
Q

What is the total lung capacity?

Description

A

The maximum volume of air that the lungs can hold
Vital capacity plus residual volume
(TV + IRV + ERV + RV)

21
Q

What is the vital capacity plus the residual volume?

A

The total lung capacity

22
Q

What is the total lung capacity minus the residual volume?

A

The vital capacity

23
Q

What is FEV1?

description

A

Volume of air that can be expired during the first second of expiration in forced vital capacity determination.

24
Q

What is FVC?

A

Forced Vital Capacity

Maximum volume that can be forcibly expelled from the lungs following a maximal inspiration

25
Q

How do you determine the FEV1 %?

A

FEV1/FVC ratio

26
Q

What is the normal FEV1%?

A

> 75%

27
Q

What FEV1% would be seen in a patient with obstructive lung disease?

A

FEV1% (FEV1:FVC)

28
Q

What FEV1% would be seen in a patient with restrictive lung disease?

A

FEV1% (FEV1:FVC) >75%
