Measurement of Lung Volumes

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1989
Measurements of lung volume play an integral role in the laboratory evaluation of patients with known or suspected lung disease. Several techniques are available to measure absolute lung volumes (containing residual volume). It should be noted that these techniques measure different theoretical volumes and may produce different results in patients with

Optimizing Lung Volume

2016
The ventilatory management of the premature infant with severe respiratory failure needs to follow some essential rules:

Lung Volume Measurement

2021
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 ...

Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2013
The management of obstructive lung disease, particularly emphysematous lung disease, is aggressively being pursued. The patient populations that will experience the greatest benefit with lung volume reduction are those that are the worst candidates for surgical intervention.

LUNG VOLUME IN THE NEWBORN INFANT

Pediatrics, 1962
The plethysmographic technique of Du-Bois and associates has been modified for use in newborn infants and found suitable for the measurement of lung volume. Of 37 normal infants studied with this method, most achieved full functional residual capacity during the first few minutes of life.

Sound transmission in the lung as a function of lung volume

Journal of Applied Physiology, 2002
We were interested in how the transmission of sound through the lung was affected by varying air content in intact humans as a method of monitoring tissue properties noninvasively. To study this, we developed a method of measuring transthoracic sound transit time accurately.

Lung volumes in exacerbations of asthma

The American Journal of Medicine, 1966
Abstract Lung volumes and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV 1 ) were measured serially in thirty patients during recovery from episodes of severe asthma. Abnormalities of lung volumes were present in all patients at some stage during the course of the illness.

I. LUNG VOLUMES

Pediatrics, 1965
A three-year longitudinal study of a variety of lung function tests in 147 normal children has been carried out to permit better separation of growth effects (by covariance analysis) from individual variation, to supply information not previously available, and to permit study of the interrelationships of the tests in normal subjects. In

Static Lung Volumes in Singers

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1973
It has long been assumed that the superior vocal ability of the trained professional singer arose from a higher than average breathing capacity and consequent above-normal ventilatory efficiency. However, until now, it has not been clear whether this presumed superior pulmonary capacity and breathing efficiency arose from training, from heredity, or ...

Lung deformations at minimal volume

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1980
Minimal volume (MV, gas plus tissue volume at zero transpulmonary pressure) was determined in excised dog lobes after inflation with air and with saline. MV was significantly greater in saline-filled lobes than air-filled lobes. Air inflation was performed with the lobe supported in two different ways, which were chosen to produce different ...
