| 1. | The vital capacity can be used to help differentiate causes of lung disease.
|
| 2. | Several studies have been made to measure and predict vital capacity.
|
| 3. | The summed total of forced inspiration and expiration is a person's vital capacity.
|
| 4. | The maximum volume of breath that can be exhaled is called the vital capacity.
|
| 5. | In restrictive lung disease the vital capacity is decreased.
|
| 6. | In 1814 John Hutchinson invented the spirometer, which allowed the measurement of vital capacity of the lungs.
|
| 7. | An airway restriction would not produce a reduced FEV1 / FVC ratio, but would reduce the vital capacity.
|
| 8. | In study 004, pirfenidone reduced decline in forced vital capacity ( FVC ) ( p = 0.001 ).
|
| 9. | It reached its maximum about five minutes after the injection, coinciding with the maximum depression of the vital capacity.
|
| 10. | This manifests as a reduction in lung volumes, particularly the vital capacity ( VC ) and total lung capacity ( TLC ).
