For instance, the residual volume of the lungs is the volume of gas that remains in the lungs following a maximal expiration.
27 Φεβ 2023 · Residual volume (RV) is the volume of air remaining in the lungs after maximum forceful expiration. In other words, it is the volume of air that cannot be expelled from the lungs, thus causing the alveoli to remain open at all times.
Upon completion of a maximal expiration, the volume remaining in the lungs is called the residual volume (RV). The vital capacity (VC) is the amount of air exhaled after a maximal inspiration and subsequent maximal expiration.
Definition. Residual volume (RV) is the amount of air remaining in the lungs after a maximal exhalation. It cannot be voluntarily expelled and ensures that the lungs do not collapse.
31 Οκτ 2023 · The residual volume (RV) is the amount of air that is left after expiratory reserve volume is exhaled. The lungs are never completely empty; there is always some air left in the lungs after a maximal exhalation.
Residual volume. The residual volume (RV) is the volume of air remaining in the lungs after forced expiration. It is measured with body plethysmography. RVs are increased in diseases characterized by small airway obstruction (e.g., asthma).
