The Vital Capacity Is Vital

Chest, 2016
Epidemiologic research has revealed a substantial portion of the general population with abnormal spirometry results that are characterized by decreased FEV1 and FVC but a preserved FEV1/FVC ratio. This restrictive spirometry pattern (RSP) is inconsistently defined in the literature and not well addressed by current guidelines; there is an accumulating

Slow vital capacity : differences between expiratory and inspiratory vital capacities

Respiratory function technologists/scient., 2019
Introduction: Vital capacity (VC) can be determined through expiratory (EVC) or inspiratory maneuvers (IVC). It is fundamental for determination of lung volumes and its incomplete mobilization has repercussions on the detection of air trapping or pulmonary hyperinflation.

Evaluation of Slow Vital capacity and Forced Vital Capacity in patients with COPD

Clinical Problems, 2018
Introduction: According to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) criteria, COPD is diagnosed when the ratio of Forced Expiratory Volume to Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) Methods: the database consisted of a spirometry analysis of 227 healthy individuals and 532 patients with bronchial obstruction during 2013-2017.

VITAL CAPACITY OF NEGRO RACE

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1926
This study of the vital capacity of negroes is a by-product of a hookworm study in a group of about 2,000 white and negro children of school age, in south Alabama. These children were measured carefully to determine the effect of varying intensities of hookworm infection on normal growth and development.

THE VITAL CAPACITY OF THE NEGRO CHILD

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1927
The purpose of this study is to ascertain the vital capacity of a group of normal negro children and compare these vital capacities with those of a group of white children living in the same territory. The negro child forms an integral part of our population and must be considered in any health program. It has been shown that negro children are heavier

The timing of the forced vital capacity.

The American review of respiratory disease, 1979
Based on analysis of more than 2,500 forced vital capacity (FVC) maneuvers, we examined 2 aspects of the standards for spirometry recommended by the 1977 Snowbird Workshop concerning the timing of the FVC maneuver. We compared the forced expiratory volume in one sec (FEV1) when timing was initiated by the back extrapolation method with FEV1 when timing

BASAL METABOLISM AND VITAL CAPACITY

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1924
It is often observed that patients affected by exophthalmic goiter have a decreased vital capacity, and in taking the vital capacity of a number of such patients we noted that in several instances patients with the high basal metabolic rates had a relatively lower vital capacity than those with low metabolic rates.

VITAL CAPACITY FOLLOWING LOBECTOMY

Archives of Surgery, 1926
Although the number of lobectomized patients under the observation of any one surgeon must necessarily be small, yet the report of their condition months or years after operation cannot fail to be of scientific value. As a criterion of normal health the vital capacity should not be neglected and it may finally become of importance in deciding on the ...
