How did my tidal and vital lung capacity differ?
My tidal lung capacity was lower. I know the difference because in the tidal lung capacity you are taking in less breath. When you are doing the vital lung capacity, you take in more breath.
What is the lung capacity available for speech?
Vital Capacity (VC)
What does total lung capacity equals?
Total lung volume equals Vital Capacity + Residual Volume.
The lung volume that represents the total volume of exchangeable air is the?
The lung volume that represents the total volume of exchangeable air is the vital capacity. It is the maximum amount of air a person can exhale after taking the deepest possible inhalation.
A restrictive lung disorder is indicated by a below normal?
vital capacity
How do you measure lung capacity?
One measure of lung size is called vital capacity and it refers to the amount of air that can be inhaled and exhaled forcibly in one breath.
What measurement in addition to vital capacity is needed before you can calculate your total lung capacity?
Residual volume
What is the lung volume that represents the total volume of exchangeable air?
vital capacity
Pulmonary Volume with its approximate value?
functional residual capacity 2300 Inspiratory capacity 3500 Vital capacity 4600 Total lung capacity 5800
Why does predicted vital capacity vary with height?
Vital capacity varies depending on the size of the thoracic cavity, which tends to correlate with height. Lung capacity varies with height, weight, age, gender, and ethnicity.
What diseases have a small vital capacity?
Diseases that can lead to a small vital capacity include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), neuromuscular disorders such as muscular dystrophy, and restrictive lung diseases like pulmonary fibrosis. These conditions can result in decreased lung function and reduced ability to fully inflate the lungs, leading to a smaller vital capacity.
What variables affect lung capacity?
Vital capacity is a term which refers to the maximum volume someone can breathe in his lungs [ the max volume of air inhaled after a max exhalation]. It depends on many factors. How fit someone is, smoking, obesity, height, sex, body size and the posture of the body [when someone lies his vital capacity is less than standing]. Also when playing a flute instrument you'll increase your vital capacity,
