Residual volume: the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a maximal exhalation: ERV: Expiratory reserve volume: the maximal volume of air that can be exhaled from the end-expiratory position: IRV: Inspiratory reserve volume: the maximal volume that can be inhaled from the end-inspiratory level: IC: Inspiratory capacity: the sum of IRV and ...
FRC is the sum of expiratory reserve volume (ERV) and residual volume (RV) [2] and measures approximately 3000 mL in a 70 kg, average-sized male. [1] [2] It cannot be estimated through spirometry, since it includes the residual volume.

Output of a spirometer. Vital capacity (VC) is the maximum amount of air a person can expel from the lungs after a maximum inhalation.It is equal to the sum of inspiratory reserve volume, tidal volume, and expiratory reserve volume.

The most common parameters measured in spirometry are vital capacity (VC), forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume (FEV) at timed intervals of 0.5, 1.0 (FEV1), 2.0, and 3.0 seconds, forced expiratory flow 25–75% (FEF 25–75) and maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV), [10] also known as Maximum breathing capacity.
