1Static Lung Volumes: Lung volumes measure during periods [blank_start]without[blank_end] air flow.
Functional Residual Volume (FRC)
Volume of gas in lungs at [blank_start]end expiratory[blank_end] level
Typical: [blank_start]2400[blank_end] mL
[blank_start]Decreased[blank_end] with restrictive disease
[blank_start]Increased[blank_end] with obstructive disease (air trapping)
FRC = ERV + [blank_start]RV[blank_end]
FRC = [blank_start]TLC[blank_end] - IC
Residual Volume (RV)
Volume of gas in lungs after maximal [blank_start]expiration[blank_end].
TYpical: [blank_start]1200[blank_end] mL
[blank_start]Decreased[blank_end] with restrictive disease
[blank_start]Increased[blank_end] with obstructive disease
RV = [blank_start]FRC[blank_end] - ERV
RV = TLC - [blank_start]RV[blank_end]
Total Lung Capacity (TLC)
Volume of gas in the lungs following maximal [blank_start]inspiration[blank_end].
Typical: [blank_start]6000[blank_end] mL
[blank_start]Decreased[blank_end] with restrictive disease
[blank_start]Increased[blank_end] with obstructive disease
TLC = IRV + [blank_start]VT[blank_end] + ERV + RV
TLC = IC + [blank_start]FRC[blank_end]
TLC = VC + [blank_start]RV[blank_end]- Awithout

4He Dilution
Uses He in closed system to measure [blank_start]FRC[blank_end]
Pt rebreathes known concentration of He ([blank_start]10[blank_end]%) mixed with Room air for up to [blank_start]7[blank_end] minutes.
He is distributed throughout lungs until [blank_start]equilibrium[blank_end] is establish between [blank_start]lungs[blank_end] and spirometer.
Switch-in should occur at end [blank_start]expiration[blank_end]. Initial and final [blank_start]He[blank_end] concentration are measured and FRC is [blank_start]calculated[blank_end].
EOT when He concentration changes by <.[blank_start]02[blank_end]% in [blank_start]30[blank_end] sec.
Add small amounts of [blank_start]O2[blank_end] to replace O2 that is consumed.
Measures FRC, ERV. [blank_start]TLC[blank_end] is calculated: RV + VC = TLC
Requires a [blank_start]CO2[blank_end] absorber
Deadspace is subtracted, add volume to correct for He absorbed in blood.- AFRC

5He Dilution QA
Baseline should be flat and % He reading [blank_start]stable[blank_end] prior to switch-in
Consistent baseline should be maintained by adding [blank_start]O2[blank_end] to the system
Pattern of breathing with [blank_start]increased[blank_end] rate/depth means the [blank_start]CO2[blank_end] absorber needs replaced.
EOT occurs when He concentration changes by <.[blank_start]02[blank_end]% in [blank_start]30[blank_end] seconds.
Failure to achieve [blank_start]equilibrium[blank_end] indicates a leak.
Wait [blank_start]10[blank_end]-[blank_start]15[blank_end] minutes in between tests
Report the [blank_start]mean[blank_end] of [blank_start]3[blank_end] acceptable tests.- Astable

6N2 Washout
Measures [blank_start]FRC[blank_end] by replacing N2 in lungs with O2.
Pt rebreathes [blank_start]100[blank_end]% O2 for up to 7 minutes or until N2 < [blank_start]1[blank_end]%.
Final value of expired N2 = .[blank_start]01[blank_end]
Normal lungs will washout in [blank_start]3[blank_end] minutes or less, obstructed pts may not washout completely.
Switch in occurs at [blank_start]end expiration[blank_end].
Exhaled gases are collected and final %[blank_start]N2[blank_end] is used to calculated FRC
Open circuit method, rapid analyzer gives breath by breath analyzation.
Analyzer failure will spike [blank_start]O2[blank_end] but then go back to normal.- AFRC

7N2 Washout QA
Normal lungs washout in <3 minutes
EOT occurs when N2% changes < [blank_start]1.5[blank_end]% over 3 breaths.
Allow [blank_start]15[blank_end] minutes in between tests
Report [blank_start]mean[blank_end] of [blank_start]2[blank_end] acceptable tests that are within [blank_start]10[blank_end]% of each other.
Zero the N2 analyzer with [blank_start]100[blank_end]% O2.- A1.5

8Body Plethysmogaph
Measures: FRC, Vtg (same as [blank_start]FRC[blank_end]), TLC, RV/TLC, Raw.
Pt breathes normally for several breaths, then at end exp the shutter closes and pt [blank_start]pants[blank_end].
No [blank_start]airflow[blank_end] is present.
Pmouth = [blank_start]Palveolar[blank_end] (plotted [blank_start]vertically[blank_end])
2nd transducer measure Pbox
Pbox = [blank_start]Vtg[blank_end] (plotted [blank_start]horizontally[blank_end])
[blank_start]Boyle's[blank_end] law is used to calculate Vtg: P1V1 - P2V2
Measures trapped gases not in communication with [blank_start]airways[blank_end]
Angle of P-V loop should be [blank_start]45[blank_end] degrees.
Flattened loop displaced downward = [blank_start]restrictive[blank_end] disease- AFRC

9Body Plethysmograph QA
Pmouth transducer: with water or Hg [blank_start]barometer[blank_end]
[blank_start]Pbox[blank_end] transducer: with sinewave pump
Flow Transducer: [blank_start]Rotameter[blank_end]
QC is done using an [blank_start]isothermal[blank_end] lung model to validate the volume measuring ability.
Should be within [blank_start]5[blank_end]% of actual volume.- Abarometer

10Radiological Estimation of TLC
CXR are taken at TLC both [blank_start]laterally[blank_end] and P-A
Standard points are marked on image and measurements made and geometric [blank_start]formulas[blank_end] are used to calculate static lung volumes
Useful in pts unable to perform [blank_start]tests[blank_end].- Alaterally
- Bformulas
- Ctests
11Body Plethysmography QA
A [blank_start]closed[blank_end] Pmouth/Pbox loop indicates patient panted correctly
Open loops indicates compression of gas in [blank_start]oropharynx[blank_end], a [blank_start]leak[blank_end], or patient is panting too [blank_start]fast[blank_end]
Minimum of 3 acceptable panting maneuvers should be obtained and [blank_start]Vtg[blank_end] within [blank_start]5[blank_end]% of each other.

12Body Plethysmograph
Based on [blank_start]Boyle’s[blank_end] law that pressure and volume vary [blank_start]inversely[blank_end] if the [blank_start]temperature[blank_end] is constant.
Measures: Thoracic Gas Volume ([blank_start]Vtg[blank_end]) which equals the [blank_start]FRC[blank_end] and [blank_start]Raw[blank_end]
Incorporates a [blank_start]shutter[blank_end] which eliminates [blank_start]pressure[blank_end] changes brought about by [blank_start]airflow[blank_end] or airway resistance
Calibration:
Pmouth with Hg or water [blank_start]barometer[blank_end]
Flows: verified w/[blank_start]rotameter[blank_end]
P[blank_start]box[blank_end]: Calibrated with a sine wave pump.
More accurately measures FRC in [blank_start]obstructive[blank_end] disease
Disadvantages: Pt physical limitations, claustrophobia, unacceptable panting.
The Vent in the box allows [blank_start]heat[blank_end] to escape.- ABoyle’s
