Equations used


FuncResCap = ExpReserveVol + ResidualVol
 

InspCap = InspReserveVol + TidalVol
 

TotalLungCap = InspReserveVol + TidalVol + ExpReserveVol + ResidualVol
 

VitalCap = InspReserveVol + TidalVol + ExpReserveVol
 

ClosingCap = ClosingVol + ResidualVol
 

CVVCRatio = 100 * ClosingVol / VitalCap
 

CCTLCRatio = 100 * ClosingCap / TotalLungCap
 

RVTLCRatio = 100 * ResidualVol / TotalLungCap
