Best Answer

Having a common cold usually creates swelling in your airways resulting hyperinflation in the lungs, making it hard to get a full breathe. Prolonged hyperinflation can cause auto peeps in the tidal volume, which mean that the air exhaled is much less then the air inhaled creating a buildup of carbon dioxide and eventually leading to respiratory failure. Your minute volume can decrease as well this is what makes you feel fatigued.

How can you measure lung volume?

Respiratory volume or respiratory minute volume is the volume of air which can be inhaled or exhaled from a person's lung in one minute.It is normally consider when a person on a ventilator for breathing problem due to sickness or injury. It is calculated by taking the tidal volume( or lung volume ) and multiplying it by the respiratory rate( the number of breaths per minute a person is taking).

What is the difference between normal ventilation and minute ventilation?

Normal ventilation means the patient receives a normal pressure or volume of gas while inspiring and also while expiring. Minute ventilation means the ventilator makes sure that the patient inspires and expires the particular minute volume set for the patient. For example if it is a 70kg patient . He needs a minute volume of 7L/min. the ventilator makes sure that the person inspires and expires 7L/min.


Why does minute rice only double in volume while long grain triples in volume?

Minute Rice only doubles in volume because it's precooked and has already lost 1/3 of its volume.


What is the equivalent of 50cc Tidal Volume to Liters per Minute?

50 cc tidal volume (awfully little!) x 12 breaths/minute is 600 cc per minute, or 0.6 l. 50 cc tidal volume x 20 breaths/minute = 1000 cc per minute, or 1 l.


How do you work out minute ventilation volume?

tidal volume x breathing rate


How much blood is forced out of your heart every hour?

Here you go.http://www.biosbcc.net/doohan/sample/htm/COandMAPhtm.htmCardiac output is the volume of blood pumped by the heart per minute (mL blood/min). Cardiac output is a function of heart rate and stroke volume. The heart rate is simply the number of heart beats per minute. The stroke volume is the volume of blood, in milliliters (mL), pumped out of the heart with each beat. Increasing either heart rate or stroke volume increases cardiac output.Cardiac Output in mL/min = heart rate (beats/min) X stroke volume (mL/beat)An average person has a resting heart rate of 70 beats/minute and a resting stroke volume of 70 mL/beat. The cardiac output for this person at rest is:Cardiac Output = 70 (beats/min) X 70 (mL/beat) = 4900 mL/minute.


What is minute ventilation?

the amount of air breathed in 1 minute. Minute Ventilation = Tidal Volume x Respiratory Rate

Affects of exercise on respiratory minute volume?

Respiratory minute volume refers to the volume of breath per minute. During exercise, this amount increases up to 20 to 30 times the normal value. Exercising regularly improves lung performance and makes breathing easier.


How does gallons of water per minute affect water pressure?

The amount of water flowing by the gallon per minute affects water pressure in a way that means the higher the volume of water per minute, the higher the pressure the water will be. There is also the factor of air in the pipes that will slow down water pressure significantly.
