Q

What are volumes?

A

discrete units that refer to the amount of air in a given space

partioning off the respiratoy system so that we may get an accurate estimate of the amount of air each compartment can hold

Q

What are capacities?

A

functional units that refer to a combination of volumes that express physiological limits

functional units that refer to combinations of voluemes that express physiological limits

measurment = mililiters or cubic centimeters 1 ml = 1cc

16
Q

What is tidal volume (TV)?

A

amount of air inhaled and exhaled in one respiratory cycle

this varies as a function of physiologic exertion –> more TV with greater exhertion

17
Q

What is quiet resting tidal volume for adults?

A

~525 cc

18
Q

What is inspiratory reserve volume (IRV)?

A

maximum amount of air that can be inspired from the peak volume of passive tidal inhalation

volume of air reserved for us beyond tidal volume

breath in as deply as possible after a tidal inspiration

19
Q

What is expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV)?

A

maximum amount of air that can be forecefully expired from the negative peak of expiration during the passive tidal volume cycle

20
Q

What is the average ERV for adults?

A

~1000 cc for adults

21
Q

What is residual volume(RV)?

A

volume of air in the lungs after a maximum forced exhalation that you cannot exhale

this volume exists because of pleural linkage- lungs are always somewhat expanded so ther is always “some “ air in them

22
Q

What is the average RV for an adult?

A

1100 cc

23
Q

What is dead space air volume?

A

air that does not contribute to O2- CO2 exchange because never meaks it to the alveoli

remains in the nasal vacities, larynx, trachea, boronchi and bronchioles

measured as part of RV

24
Q

What is the average dead space volume for an adult?

A

150 cc

25
Q

How much does Vital Capcity decrease every year after age 25?

A

100 mL/ year

26
Q

What do the lungs want to do at all lung volumes?

A

passively collapse, get smaller

27
Q

What do the lungs want to do at high lung voluems, greater than 55% VC?

A

chest wall aslo wants to passively collapse (get smaller)

28
Q

What do the lungs want to do at low lung volumes less than 55% VC?

A

chest wall wants to passively expand, get bigger

29
Q

What percent VC is there an equilibrium between passive force of lung collapes and passive forces of chest expansion?

A

38-40& VC

30
Q

What is the ratio for inspiratory breathing vs. experitory breathing during quiet breathing?

A

inspiratory: 40%

experiatory 60%

31
Q

What is the ratio of inspiratory breathing vs experiatory breathing during speech?

A

Inspiratory 10%

Experiatory 90%
