Part Descriptions
LP140652-1 Volume expired during 1.0 s of forced expiration
The forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) is the volume of air that can be exhaled in one second. It is usually measured as part of the forced vital capacity (FVC), which is the total amount of air that can be exhaled in a full forced exhalation. The pattern of FVC, FEV1, and the FEV1/FVC ratio can be used together to determine the type of respiratory disease. A normal or low FVC with an FEV1/FVC of <0.7 indicates obstructive pulmonary disease, while low FVC and FEV1/FVC of >0.7 indicates respiratory disease. Normal values for FEV1 and FVC vary based on several factors including age, sex, height, and weight. PMID: 15023009

LP91339-9 Volume expired during 1.0 s of forced expiration/Forced vital capacity
FEV1/FVC (FEV1%) is the ratio of FEV1 to FVC. In healthy adults this should be approximately 75-80%. In obstructive diseases (asthma, COPD, chronic bronchitis, emphysema) FEV1 is diminished because of increased airway resistance to expiratory flow; the FVC may be decreased as well, due to the premature closure of airway in expiration, just not in the same proportion as FEV1 (for instance, both FEV1 and FVC are reduced, but the former is more affected because of the increased airway resistance). This generates a reduced value (<80%, often ~45%). In restrictive diseases (such as pulmonary fibrosis) the FEV1 and FVC are both reduced proportionally and the value may be normal or even increased as a result of decreased lung compliance.
A derived value of FEV1% is FEV1% predicted, which is defined as FEV1% of the patient divided by the average FEV1% in the population for any person of similar age, sex and body composition.
