The aims of this paper are to provide reference equations for static lung volumes for a cohort of healthy never-smoking white European adults between 65 and 85 years of age and to compare the predicted values of this sample with those from other studies including middle-aged adults.

16 Ιουλ 2023 · This article looks at lung volumes and capacities, their measurements and effects of common pathology. This division allows for assessment of the mechanical condition of the lungs, its musculature, airway resistance and the effectiveness of gas exchange at the alveolar membrane.
22 Μαρ 2024 · Spirometry is an important test for your lung health. Learn what to expect from the test and how to interpret your results.
Lung Capacity and Aging. Did you know that the maximum amount of air healthy adult lungs can hold—also called total lung capacity or TLC—is about 6 liters? That is about three large soda bottles. Your lungs mature by the time you are about 20-25 years old.
Average values in healthy patients aged 20-60 range from 5.5 to 4.75 liters in males and from 3.75 to 3.25 liters in females. FEV1, Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second. This parameter measures the amount, or volume, exhaled by a patient in the first second of the expiration after a full inspiration.
4 Απρ 2024 · Reference values for lung volumes are necessary to identify and diagnose restrictive lung diseases and hyperinflation, but the values have to be validated in the relevant population.
1 Δεκ 2009 · Measurements and main results: Plethysmography provided higher values than the dilutional method for all lung volumes, with wide limits of agreement. In addition to height, our reference equations confirm the age- and body size dependence of lung volumes in older subjects.
