Abstract

Static lung volumes are commonly described as volumes or capacities. Volumes are not subdivided and include tidal volume (Vt), inspiratory reserve volume (IRV), expiratory reserve volume (ERV), and residual volume (RV). However, capacities consist of at least two lung volumes and include total lung capacity (TLC), vital capacity (VC), functional residual capacity (FRC), and inspiratory capacity (IC) (Fig. 4.1). Definition of lung volumes are described in Table 4.1.
