The amount of air effectively moved during ventilation is referred to as tidal volume, while the blood access to the alveoli is measured by perfusion. The relationship between these two factors is expressed as the ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) ratio. An optimal V/Q ratio indicates efficient gas exchange, with balanced ventilation and perfusion, while deviations can lead to respiratory inefficiencies.
