  2. Tidal volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tidal_volume

    Tidal volume (symbol V T or TV) is the volume of air inspired and expired with each passive breath. [1] It is typically assumed that the volume of air inhaled is equal to the volume of air exhaled such as in the figure on the right. In a healthy, young human adult, tidal volume is approximately 500 ml per inspiration at rest or 7 ml/kg of body ...

  3. Lung volumes and capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_volumes_and_capacities

    The average total lung capacity of an adult human male is about 6 litres of air. [1] Tidal breathing is normal, resting breathing; the tidal volume is the volume of air that is inhaled or exhaled in only a single such breath. The average human respiratory rate is 30–60 breaths per minute at birth, [2] decreasing to 12–20 breaths per minute ...

  4. Spirometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirometry

    Tidal volume: that volume of air moved into or out of the lungs during quiet breathing (VT indicates a subdivision of the lung; when tidal volume is precisely measured, as in gas exchange calculation, the symbol TV or V T is used.) FRC: Functional residual capacity: the volume in the lungs at the end-expiratory position: RV/TLC%

  5. VO2 max - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VO2_max

    According to Voutilainen et al. 2020, the constant factor should be 14 in around 40-year-old normal weight never-smoking men with no cardiovascular diseases, bronchial asthma, or cancer. [11] Every 10 years of age reduces the coefficient by one, as well as does the change in body weight from normal weight to obese or the change from never ...

  6. Respiratory quotient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_quotient

    The respiratory quotient (RQ or respiratory coefficient) is a dimensionless number used in calculations of basal metabolic rate (BMR) when estimated from carbon dioxide production. It is calculated from the ratio of carbon dioxide produced by the body to oxygen consumed by the body, when the body is in a steady state.

  7. Human body weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_weight

    Excess or reduced body weight is regarded as an indicator of determining a person's health, with body volume measurement providing an extra dimension by calculating the distribution of body weight. Average adult human weight varies by continent, from about 60 kg (130 lb) in Asia and Africa to about 80 kg (180 lb) in North America, with men on ...

  8. Waist-to-height ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waist-to-height_ratio

    Many cross- sectional studies have shown that, even within the normal BMI range, many adults have WHtR which is above 0.5. [ 34 ] [ 35 ] [ 26 ] Many children show the same phenomenon. [ 36 ] [ 37 ] Risk factors for metabolic diseases [ 35 ] [ 38 ] and mortality are raised in these subjects.
