Jel (vital capacity of the lungs) is an indicator that characterizes the ability of a person’s lungs to expand and fill with air. Jel is one of the main indicators of external respiratory function and can be used to diagnose various lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia and others.
To measure gel pressure, it is necessary to perform spirometry, a procedure in which the patient breathes into a special machine that measures the volume of air passing through the lungs. Spirometry can be performed both on an outpatient basis and in a hospital setting.
Normally, the gel value should be at least 50% of the lung volume. However, in people with lung diseases such as chronic obstructive disease or bronchiectasis, the JEL value may be significantly lower than normal.
The measurement of gel is of great importance for the diagnosis and treatment of lung diseases. For example, in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, a decrease in the dela value may indicate progression of the disease and the need for additional treatment.
Therefore, gela measurement is an important tool for assessing lung function and diagnosing diseases.
