Tidal volume (TV)
Amount of air inhaled or exhaled with each breath under resting conditions
Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV
Amount of Air that can be forcefully inhaled after a normal tidal volume inspiration
Expiratory reserve volume(ERV)
Amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled after a normal tidal volume expiration
Total lung capacity (TLC)
Maximum amount of air contained in lungs after a maximum inspiratory effort: TLC=TV+IRV+ERV+RV
Vital capacity (VC)
Maximum amount of air that can be expired after a maximum inspiratory effort:VC=VC=TV+IRV+E
Inspiratory capacity(IC)
Maximum amount of air that can be inspired after a normal tidal volume expiration:IC=TV+IRV
Functional residual capacity (FRC)
Volume of air remaining in the lungs after a normal tidal volume expiration:FRC=ERV+RV
Tidal volume(TV) average volume
500 ml
