End-expiratory volume refers to the volume of air remaining in the lungs at the end of a normal expiration. It is a key component of lung function and is important for maintaining adequate gas exchange and preventing lung collapse. This volume can be measured using techniques like spirometry and is typically part of pulmonary function tests. Understanding end-expiratory volume helps in assessing respiratory health and identifying potential disorders.
The volume not included in the vital capacity is the residual volume (RV). Residual volume is the amount of air that remains in the lungs after a maximal exhalation and cannot be voluntarily expelled. Vital capacity, which consists of tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, and expiratory reserve volume, measures the maximum amount of air a person can exhale after a deep breath, excluding the residual volume.
The Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV1) divided by Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) ratio is a key measure in pulmonary function tests that helps assess lung function. This ratio indicates the proportion of the total air capacity that can be forcibly exhaled in one second. A normal ratio (typically > 70%) suggests healthy lung function, while a reduced ratio can indicate obstructive lung diseases, such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), highlighting airflow limitation. Thus, this ratio is crucial for diagnosing and monitoring respiratory conditions.
Volume of a cylinder = (pi) x (radius of the end)2 x (length)
Density is the amount of mass per unit of volume. Density = mass/volume Mass is the amount of matter in a sample. Length is the longest extent of anything as measured end to end. Volume is the amount of three-dimensional space occupied by a solid, liquid, or gas.
A good place to measure is the diameter of the circular end. That gives you the area of the circular end, and the only other number you need in order to calculate the cylinder's volume is its straight length.
Regular exercise can increase the strength and efficiency of respiratory muscles, including those involved in exhalation. This can lead to improved lung function, increased expiratory muscle strength, and potentially an increase in expiratory reserve volume over time.
ACUTE EFFECT - The inspiratory and expiratory volume decreases during exercise
The abbreviation FRV stands for functional reserve volume. Functional reserve volume is used to describe the volume of air in ones lungs at the end of the expiratory position.
Forced expiratory volume
It's the inspiratory reserve volume plus the tidal volume plus the expiratory reserve volume
Erv = FEV - TV

The Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) is calculated by subtracting the tidal volume and expiratory reserve volume from the total lung capacity. In this case, the total lung capacity is the sum of the active capacity and the expiratory reserve volume, which equals 5660ml. Therefore, the IRV would be 5660ml - 500ml - 1300ml = 3860ml.
What happens to residual volume, tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume and expiratory reserve volume just after exercise while breathing deeply and rapidly? Do they increase, decrease or stay the same?
Smoking, a cold possibly, allergies,etc.
