Functional Residual Capacity (FRC = RV + ERV) is the lung volume at end-tidal expiration, where lung and chest wall forces balance. It acts as an intrathoracic oxygen tank, crucial for safe apnea. General anesthesia, obesity, pregnancy, and supine positioning all reduce FRC, predisposing patients to atelectasis and hypoxemia. Preoxygenation and PEEP help preserve FRC and extend safe apnea time.
