ENS 304L Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Gxt, Lung Volumes, Lab Report
Document Summary
Pulmonary responses at rest and during exercise (lab report) It also collects the dynamic lung volumes that also helps identify signs of copds but is primarily used to examine the lung power of the airflow into and out of the lungs to show a correlation to performance. This data can then be compared to the predicted data. The graded exercise test (gxt) is used for a gas analysis from rest to maximal performance and observe the relationship of ve to vt1 and vt2. Methods: the parvomedics machine was used for both tests and the barometric pressure, room temperature, and relative humidity is measured on its own. A male and female, both active and in good health, participated in the spirometry test. Input the their information and set them up a white filter and mouthpiece connected to the machine and apply the nose piece. Instruct them to breathe in deeply and once they reach their inspiration capacity begin the test and.
