Abstract
The total compliance of lungs andthorax was determined in 27 men without pulmo-and thorax nary or cardiovascular disease by means of static positive pressure with weighted spirometry technique. The results were correlated to static lung volumes, body size and body surface area. mean value of Ctot of 101 ml/cm H2O corresponds with values obtained by other authors with different methods. A significant correlation was found between Ctot and TLC, VC, body size, and body surface area. The correlation to body weight and age was not significant. The results are discussed with respect to normal and pathologic conditions
