Inspiratory Capacity (IC) is the maximum amount of air that can be inspired after a normal expiration, IC = TV + IRV . It is 3600 mL in adult male and 2400 mL in adult female. Residual Volume (RV) is the amount of air remaining in the lungs after a forced exhalation. Its average value is 1200 mL and 1100 mL in adult male and female respectively.
