The purpose of the present study was to modify the pulmonary residual volume (RV) measuring method using closed circuit helium dilution technique. The modifications were attemped in the standpoint of time saving and stabilizing the measurements.

Subjects were six healthy males, twenty to thirty in age.

The RVs were measured by three different techni-ques as follows:

1) Ordinarily exhale method (OEM) which have been carried out in many investigators.

2) Fully exhale method (FEM) which was developed by authors.

3) Deep breathing method (DBM) which was also developed by authors.

No obvious differences were produced between the two types of RV measurements which were obtained by using OEM and FEM. However, since FEM pro-duced smaller SD than that of OEM in RV measure-ments, it may be concluded that FEM should be choosen in respect to stability of measurements.

When gas mixing was done by DBM proper RV measurements were obtained by three to five times of deep breathing. Therefore, DBM would be recommend-ed in regard to time saving. In addition, since DBM is one of the fully exhale methods in regard to switching the connection between the lungs and the circuit. this technique would be expected to produce a stable mea-surement. Therefore, this technique would be considered to provide a very useful tool to the investigators measur-ing RV.

Duration of gas mixing have been proposed to conti-nue for seven to ten minutes traditionally. However, our experiments revealed that three minutes of gas mixing also produced stable RV measurements.
