- Lung Volumes
- Tidal Volume- amount of air breathed in or out per breath
- Value at rest- 500ml
- Change in exercise- increases
- Inspiratory reserve volume- maximul amount of air forcibly inspired in addition to tidal volume
- Value at rest- 3100ml
- Change in exercise- decreases
- Expiratory reserve volume- maximal amount of air forcibly expired in addition to tidal volume
- Value at rest- 1200ml
- Change in exercise- decreases
- Vital Capacity- maximal amount of air exhaled after maximal inspiration (TV+IRV +ERV)
- Value at rest- 4800ml
- Change in exercise- slight
- Residual volume- amount of air left in lungs after a maximal expiration
- Value at rest- 1200ml
- Change in exercise-none
- Total lung capacity- vital capacity plus residual volume (TV+IRV+ERV+RV)
- Value at rest-6000ml
- Change in exercise- none
- Tidal Volume- amount of air breathed in or out per breath
