Pulmonary Function Testing Des Jardins: Clinical Manifestations and
Assessment of Respiratory Disease, 8th Edition
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Pulmonary function studies are done for which of the following
measurements?
1. The patient’s carbon monoxide level
2. Lung volumes and capacities
3. Pulmonary diffusion capacity
4. Forced expiratory flowrates
a. 1
b. 2, 3
c. 2, 3, 4
d. 1, 2, 3
ANS: C
A blood sample must be analyzed by a cooximeter to determine a patient’s
carbon monoxide level. All of the other listed options can be measured on a
pulmonary function test.
2. In response to a restrictive lung disorder, which of the following is typically
found?
1. Decreased lung compliance
2. Increased ventilatory rate
3. Decreased tidal volume
4. Decreased lung rigidity
a. 1
b. 2, 3
c. 2, 3, 4
d. 1, 2, 3
ANS: D
With a restrictive lung disorder, there will be increased lung rigidity. This
causes decreased lung compliance. As a result, the patient breathes faster and
with a smaller tidal volume.
3. A special indirect measurement procedure must be done to find which of the
following?
a. Inspiratory reserve volume
b. Residual volume
c. Expiratory reserve volume

ANS: B
Because the residual volume cannot be measured by spirometry, special
procedures and equipment must be used to indirectly measure it. The
other listed options can be directly measured by spirometry.
4. In a healthy individual, which of the following is considered a normal
expiratory time necessary to perform a forced vital capacity?
a. Less than 4 seconds
b. 4 to 6 seconds
