SCS Study Guide- Medical Conditions Flashcards
what is total lung capacity
most air you can breath into your lungs
what is vital capacity
amount of air you can take advantages of and the volume of air breathed out after deepest inhalation
residual volume
air in lungs after a maximum expiration
tidal volume
amount of air moved in and out of lungs with normal breathing
expiratory reserve volume
max volume of air that can be exhaled from the end expiratory position
inspiratory reserve volume
max volume inhaled after end inspiratory level
FEV1
forced expiration volume at end of 1 second
FVC
vital capacity from max forced exhalation (most air that can be maximally exhale)
how do volumes and rates differ in restrictive vs obstructuve diseases
restrictive: decrease volume, normal rates
obstructive: volumes normal, rated impeded
what happens to FEV1/FVC in obstructive diseases
ratio is decreased
how do you treat exercise induced bronchospasms
10-15 min before, beta 2 agonist before the start
what can a treadmill challenge tell you about asthma
that after 6-8 min of treadmill at 85% HR, if FEV 1 drops over 10%
