What is FRC?

Question

What does FRC stand for, and what is it about?

Answer 1

In a medical context it stands for Functional Residual Capacity.

It is the volume of the lung at the end of a normal (as opposed to forced) expiration. A low FRC is a marker of respiratory disease, although it's obviously a little more complicated than that.

Answer 2

The three-letter acronym FRC can have several different meanings:

* Family Records Centre, the main centre for family history research in England and Wales, located in London.

* Federal Radio Commission
* Fenland Research Committee, a British organisation of the 1930s concerned with the archaeology of the East Anglian Fen
* Fiber-reinforced composite.
* Field-Reversed Configuration, a type of magnetic fusion energy device
* The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) is the UK's independent regulator for corporate reporting and governance.
* FIRST Robotics Competition, an annual contest between high schools with Regional events across the USA, Canada and in Israel.
* Fischer Random Chess, a chess variant

Answer 3

FRC stands for Functional Residual Capacity. It is the volume of air in your lungs at the end of a normal expiration. It represents the natural balance point of the lungs and its natural tendency to reduce its volume (elastic recoil inward) and the chest wall which tends to have an outward elastic recoil. A large FRC will indicate a disease process in the lung because of the lost elasticity of the lung tissue as in Emphysema.
