Inspiratory Reserve Volume | (IRV)
* Amount of air that can still be breathed in after _normal_ inspiration
27
Tidal Volume | (TV)
* Amount of air that moves into lungs after _quiet_ inspiration * 500 mL
28
Expiratory Reserve Volume | (ERV)
* Amount of air that can still be breathed out after _normal_ expiration
29
Residual Volume | (RV)
* Amount of air left in lung after _max_ _expiration_
30
Capacity
2 or \> volumes
31
Inspiratory Capacity | (IC)
* Total amount of air that can be inspired after normal expiration * TV + IRV
