VENTILACIÓN PULMONAR 💨 (Volúmenes y Capacidades) FÁCIL — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Hello, hello, how are you? Welcome. In
- 0:02this video, we are going to look at
- 0:04lung volumes and capacities in a very
- 0:06easy, very simple way. This is a topic
- 0:08that often gets complicated, but we
- 0:10will see that it is easy and simple to
- 0:12understand. We have this chart on the
- 0:15left, which shows volumes, and on the
- 0:17right, all the capacities. Well, there
- 0:19is a difference between one and the
- 0:21other. Let's start by looking at the
- 0:23volumes. As we see here, yes, we are
- 0:27going to have different volumes. We are
- 0:30going to start with tidal volume. First
- 0:33of all, to understand how to read this
- 0:36chart, every time the line goes up, it
- 0:39means an inspiration is happening, and
- 0:41every time it goes down, it's an
- 0:44expiration. Phew! So, keeping this
- 0:48concept in mind, let's see the
- 0:50following. Tidal volume. Yes, this one
- 0:54you see here in that light yellow color
- 0:57. What would it be? It is the volume of
- 1:00air that circulates between a normal
- 1:02inspiration and expiration without
- 1:04making an additional effort. The normal
- 1:06value is approximately 500 ml or 7 ml
- 1:09per kg of body weight. What is tidal
- 1:12volume? It is your normal breathing.
- 1:14Yes, it's the one where you don't even
- 1:16realize you are breathing. Yes,
- 1:17actually, sometimes we are breathing
- 1:19and we don't even notice, and now you
- 1:21are focusing on the fact that you are
- 1:23breathing. It is the normal breathing
- 1:26that we have all the time, without, as
- 1:29it says there, making an additional
- 1:31effort. Why does it talk about this
- 1:34additional effort? Because precisely
- 1:36the next one, the inspiratory reserve
- 1:38volume, what is it going to be about?
- 1:42It says it represents the additional
- 1:44volume that can be introduced into the
- 1:48lungs by performing a maximum
- 1:50inspiration from the tidal volume.
- 1:54Right, the inspiratory reserve volume
- 1:57is that extra we can inhale. For
- 2:00example, we are breathing normally and
- 2:02suddenly I inflate my lungs. Yes, there
- 2:07I made an inspiratory reserve volume,
- 2:09which clearly shows here how the line
- 2:12goes up. Yes, we often use it when we
- 2:15are about to go into the water, right?
- 2:18In a pool. Maximum inspiratory volume,
- 2:22the inspiratory reserve volume.
- 2:24Sometimes we yawn, right? We take in a
- 2:27lot of air. Well, that is the extra we
- 2:30can inhale. Well, it bears that name.
- 2:33Inspiratory reserve volume. Now, just
- 2:37as there is an inspiratory reserve
- 2:39volume, there is an expiratory reserve
- 2:41volume, which is the additional gas
- 2:43volume that can be exhaled from the
- 2:45lung after exhaling at tidal volume.
- 2:48Sure, I’ve been breathing, breathing,
- 2:50breathing, and suddenly I take, yes, an
- 2:56extra, forced exhalation, and this
- 2:59would be the expiratory reserve volume.
- 3:03Now we see that below is the residual
- 3:05volume. And what would the residual
- 3:07volume be? It corresponds to the volume
- 3:10of gas that remains inside the lung
- 3:11after a maximum forced exhalation.
- 3:13Right. Notice the following. You start
- 3:16to blow out until you run out of air.
- 3:22But that "running out of air" is in
- 3:23quotes because the lung still has some
- 3:25air left inside. It's like a balloon
- 3:28that we suddenly let go of. Yes. And it
- 3:30deflates. Some air remains inside that
- 3:34balloon. Yes, even if it's minimal,
- 3:36something remains. So that residual
- 3:38volume refers to that extra air that
- 3:41stayed, even though we performed a
- 3:43maximum forced exhalation. Right, so
- 3:46tidal volume is your normal breathing.
- 3:50Inspiratory reserve volume is when we
- 3:54took a forced inspiration, and
- 3:56expiratory reserve volume is a forced
- 3:59expiration. Yes, subscribe to the
- 4:03channel. Okay, let's move on to what's
- 4:06next. Inspiratory capacity. Let's move
- 4:09now from volumes to capacities. Wait,
- 4:12wait, haven't you visited my website
- 4:14yet? Use the link I left in the
- 4:17description, and you will find the best
- 4:19online training site with top-tier
- 4:21courses and officially certified

- 4:25classroom to make the experience much
- 4:27more pleasant and comfortable. Take
- 4:30your knowledge to the max and become a
- 4:32professional. See you there. And once
- 4:36we have understood volumes, we move on
- 4:38to how to add the volumes and we obtain
- 4:40capacities. Inspiratory capacity, first
- 4:44, as we see here, yes, in this green
- 4:46part, what is added? Tidal volume with
- 4:50inspiratory reserve volume. So,
- 4:53inspiratory capacity, of course,
- 4:55includes tidal volume plus inspiratory
- 4:58reserve volume, everything I can
- 5:00inspire in total. So, let's read the
- 5:03definition. It is equal to tidal volume
- 5:06plus inspiratory reserve volume, as we
- 5:08said, it represents the amount of air a
- 5:11person can inspire, starting at the
- 5:13normal expiratory level and uh
- 5:15distending the lungs to maximum
- 5:17capacity. Its approximate value is 3600
- 5:21ml. Yes, we inspire, we inspire, we
- 5:24inspire to the limit. That would be the
- 5:27inspiratory capacity. Capacity always
- 5:30talks about a limit, yes? If I have a 2
- 5:33-liter bottle, well, 2 liters is the
- 5:35capacity, yes? So, we talk about the
- 5:37lungs in the same way. Functional
- 5:40residual capacity, we see here below,
- 5:43is the volume of air that remains in
- 5:45the lungs at the end of a normal
- 5:48exhalation or expiratory resting point.
- 5:51It is practically the same as the
- 5:53residual volume. Yes, it says, it is
- 5:55the volume of air remaining in the
- 5:56lungs at the end of a normal expiration
- 5:58. and there is volume left in my lungs.
- 6:04Yes, what's more, sometimes we can blow
- 6:06out a little more and that's when we
- 6:08realize there was air left. Now, vital
- 6:12capacity. What is vital capacity? Well,
- 6:16it’s speaking right there, vital,
- 6:18something of life, what we live with.
- 6:21So, vital capacity is the volume of air
- 6:23that can be expelled from the lungs
- 6:24starting from a position of full
- 6:26inspiration; it corresponds to the
- 6:28inspiratory capacity plus the
- 6:29expiratory reserve volume. Right? These
- 6:32are the three volumes we use in daily
- 6:34life. Yes, our day is defined by tidal
- 6:37volume, plus what we use for
- 6:39inspiratory reserve volume. Oh, you see
- 6:43, I filled myself with air or I did a
- 6:45maximum inspiration, a maximum
- 6:46expiration. Our day is defined by these
- 6:50three volumes, that is why it is the
- 6:51vital capacity, right? And the total
- 6:54lung capacity precisely encompasses the
- 6:56tidal volume, the inspiratory reserve
- 6:58volume, the expiratory reserve volume,
- 7:00and the residual volume, that is, all
- 7:02the volumes. It is the maximum volume
- 7:04of gas that the lungs can contain.
- 7:06Right? So, it was very simple. Review
- 7:09the lesson if you have any doubts left,
- 7:11because I really think it is a topic
- 7:12that is not complicated, right? But
- 7:14sometimes all the names can be a bit
- 7:16confusing. So look, if you liked the
- 7:18video, subscribe right there, give it a
- 7:20like, and leave me a comment for future
- 7:22videos. See you soon. Bye. Bye.
