al·ve·o·lar ven·ti·la·tion

the volume of gas expired from the alveoli to the outside of the body per minute; calculated as the respiratory frequency (f) multiplied by the difference between tidal volume and the dead space (V_T - V_D); units: ml/min BTPS.

al·ve·o·lar ven·ti·la·tion

(V̊_A) (al-vē'ŏ-lăr ven'ti-lā'shŭn) The volume of gas per minute expired from the alveoli to the atmosphere and the product of the respiratory frequency (f) multiplied by the difference between tidal volume and the dead space (V_T - V_D); units: mL/min BTPS.
