Spirometer an instrument for measuring the air capacity of the lungs
Respiratory volume a specific measure of the amount of air in the lungs during a particular phase of the breathing cycle.
Respiratory capacity Respiratory capacity is a measure of the total usable air volume in the lungs that can be inhaled and exhaled during a single breath cycle. synonymous with vital capacity, which is the maximum volume of air that can be exhaled after a maximal inhalation
Tidal volume the amount of air inhaled or exhaled during a normal, quiet breath — typically about 500 mL in healthy adults at rest
Expiratory reserve volume the maximum amount of additional air you can forcefully exhale after completing a normal, quiet breath out.
Inspiratory reserve volume the maximum amount of additional air that can be inhaled after a normal, quiet inspiration
Residual volume the amount of air that remains in the lungs after you exhale as forcefully and completely as possible
Vital capacity the maximum volume of air your lungs can move out after you inhale as fully as possible. VC is made up of three smaller volumes: tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, and expiratory reserve volume.
