Assume for this figure that all boxes are 1 mm square (just like on the sample problems). Given the following information, calculate the tidal volume (TV). Some things that might help you: any volume = number of mm x bell correction factor x BTPS correction factor / paper speed = 40 mm/min bell correction factor is 1 mm = 30 ml BTPS correction factor = 1.1 - 22 ml/breath - 990 ml/breath - 220 ml/breath - 660 ml/breath
