Why Is Residual Volume High In COPD Patients? Have you ever wondered why residual volume is higher in people with COPD? In this video, we’ll explain the reasons behind increased air trapping and how it affects breathing. We’ll start by defining residual volume and why it’s an important measure in lung health. You’ll learn how chronic inflammation causes airway narrowing, making it difficult for air to exit the lungs during exhalation. We’ll discuss how premature collapse of small airways leads to trapped air, contributing to lung hyperinflation. Additionally, we’ll explore how the loss of elastic recoil in lung tissue reduces the lungs’ ability to push air out effectively. The video also covers how structural changes and air trapping during physical activity cause the lungs to stay partially inflated, increasing residual volume. We’ll explain how increased airway resistance from mucus buildup and bronchoconstriction prolongs exhalation, further trapping air inside the lungs. Understanding these processes is vital for recognizing the severity of airflow limitation and hyperinflation in COPD. By the end of this video, you’ll have a clearer picture of why breathing becomes more difficult and how managing airflow is essential for improving quality of life for COPD patients.
