Vital capacity lower than 20 ml/kg is described in the literature (5) as an important value to trace possible interventions in patients regardless of the related disease, confirming the purpose of this research that does not separate individuals by disease, indicating that simply viewing a decrease in these values for starting treatment.

All these changes the respiratory system, would improve the Forced
Vital Capacity, Forced epiratory volume in 1sec, FEV1/FVC Ratio, Peak Expiratory flow rate, and respiratory rate.
Among the individuals who underwent spirometry in our study, 41% had pulmonary function changes: the most prevalent were obstructive disorders (49%), followed by obstructive disorder with reduced forced
vital capacity (46%) and restrictive disorders (5%).
Thus the researcher would like to study on the effects of interval aerobic exercise on forced
vital capacity among non athlete female college students
Significant but weak correlations were found between previous Bikram yoga experience and % predicted forced
vital capacity (r = 0.38, P < 0.05) and between Bikram yoga experience and [FEV.sub.1] (r = 0.37, P < 0.05).
For example, forced
vital capacity improved by an average of 4.7%, compared with reference values in patients with the smallest hernias as expressed in a percent ITS of less than 50%, as compared with a 6.0% gain in patients with a preoperative 50%-74% ITS, a 9.1% improvement in those with 75%-99% ITS, and a 14.9% gain in FVC in patients with 100% ITS.
In case of Resting Heart Rate and Resting Pulse Rate, hypothesis that there will be a significant improvement in selected physiological variable was accepted.In case of Resting Respiratory Rate, Maximum Breath Holding Time, Blood Pressure,
Vital Capacity, Peak Flow Rate, Cardio Vascular Endurance, hypothesis that there will be a significant improvement in selected physiological variable was not accepted.,
Forced
vital capacity (FVC) in children was 94% of the predicted value vs.
Lung function assessment included forced
vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume and peak expiratory flow (PEF).
The American Thoracic Society recommends that during the single breath diffusion maneuver, the patient should be instructed to inspire the test gas to a
vital capacity which is at least 85 percent of a previous measured slow or forced
vital capacity.
This respiratory dysfunction is characterised by reduced inspiratory capacity and
vital capacity.
Vital capacity is defined as the maximum amount of air that a person can exhale following a maximum inspiration and it is correlated with most of the other pulmonary function tests (Roth, et al., 1995).
