respiratory phys Matching
functional measurement, volume of the lungs that does not participate in gas exchange |
volume inspired or expired with each normal breath |
sum of tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume |
normally passive, used during exercise; includes abdominal muscles and internal intercostals |
expiratory reserve volume |
volume that can be expired after the expiration of a tidal volume |
volume that remains in the lungs after maximal expiration |
volume of air that can be forcibly expired after maximal inspiration |
diaphragm and external intercostals |
alveolar pressure equals atmospheric pressure, intrapleural pressure is negative |
synthesized by type II alveolar cells and consits primarily of DPPC; lecithin:sphingomyelin ratio >2:! indicates mature levels of surfactant |
