33
Q

Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV):

A

Extra volume that can be inhaled over and above tidal volume

34
Q

Tidal Volume:

A

Volume of air moved in and out during normal quiet breath. Average 500mL.

35
Q

Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV):

A

Extra volume that can be exhaled voluntarily after completion of a normal quiet repertory cycle

36
Q

Minimal Volume:

A

Volume remaining in lungs if they collapsed - cannot be removed from lungs

37
Q

Residual Volume:

A

Volume remaining in lungs after maximum exhalation

38
Q

Inspiratory Capacity:

A

Total volume of air that can be inspired from rest = IRV + VT

39
Q

Vital Capacity:

A

Total volume of air that can be moved in and out of your lungs = IRV + ERV + VT

40
Q

Functional Residual Capacity:

A

Volume remaining in lungs after normal expiration = ERV + RV

41
Q

Total Lung Capacity:

A

Total volume in lungs when filled to maximum = Vt + RV
