How are fvc and fev1 values impacted by exersize in healthy individuals?
Added by Matthew P.
Step 1
FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second) is the volume of air that can be forcibly exhaled in the first second of the FVC maneuver. Both are important measures of lung function. Show more…

1. Why do expiratory reserve volume (ERV) and inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) decrease during heavy exercise? 2. Why does tidal volume (TV) increase during heavy exercise? 3. During an acute asthma attack, the compliance of the lung is decreased, not increased as it was for emphysema. How do you think the FEV1/FVC percentage of a patient undergoing an asthma attack will compare to normal? Explain your reasoning.
