What lung values changed (from those of the normal patient) in the spirogram when the patient with emphysema was selected?

2 answers:

4 0

The lung values that changed include the following: ERV < IRV < RV < FVC < FEV1%. Spirogram is used to measure pulmonary function test. It is a test that tests the efficiency of the lungs to exchange carbon dioxide and oxygen gases. The vital capacity of the lung is equal to TV +IRV + ERV and the total capacity is equal to the summation of TV, IRV, ERV and RV.

When the patient with emphysema was selected lung values changed (from those of the normal patient) in the spirogram are:

ERV, IRV, RV, FVC, FEV1, FEV1 %

The reason behind the changes of these values are due to the loss or inability of electric recoil. A spirogram (graph like structure obtained by the respiratory movements) is measured by spirometer.
