Pulmonary Function and Vital Capacity Calculator

The Pulmonary Function and Vital Capacity Calculator provides computations of the predicted and percent predicted values for:

• Vital Capacity (VC)
• Forced Expiratory Volume after 1 second (FEV1)
• Maximum Exploratory Flow Rate (MEFR)
• Maximum Ventilatory Volume after 12 seconds (MVV12)
• Residual Volume (RV)
• Total Lung Capacity (TLC)
• Functional Residual Capacity (FRC)
• Forced Expiratory Flow from 25% to 75% (FEF)

This calculator also performs computations of body surface area (BSA) by either Dubois or Boyd formula, allowing your choice of the preferred method. If cardiac output (CO) is known, cardiac index (CI) may also be calculated. Data inputs are patient's height and weight, in either metric or English units, and if desired, the cardiac output. Shareware.
