Respiratory Volume Measurements
Quantitative assessments of different volumes and capacities in the lungs during breathing and respiratory activity.
Total Lung Capacity
The maximum amount of air the lungs can hold, typically measured after a maximal inhalation effort.
Tidal Volume
The volume of air displaced between normal inhalation and exhalation when extra effort is not applied, a key component of respiratory physiology.
Hyperventilates
Breathing at an abnormally rapid rate, leading to decreased carbon dioxide levels in the blood.
