Dynamic lung volumes (forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in 0·5 second and in 1·0 second), static lung volumes (total lung capacity, functional residual capacity, residual volume), and ...

Tidal volume is the amount of air breathed in with each normal breath. The average tidal volume is 0.5 litres (500 ml). Inspiratory reserve volume is the maximum amount of additional air that can ...

The following measurements were performed: (1) the tidal volume was measured during ventilation of the total lung after occlusion of the oesophagus ... To assess loss of functional residual capacity ...
