• Validation of a technique to assess maximal inspiratory pressure in poorly cooperative patients

  Authors:Jonathon D. Truwit and John J. MariniFrom:Chest (Vol. 102, Issue 4) Peer-Reviewed

  Oct. 19922,044 words Article The maximal pressure that can be generated during an inspiratory effort against an occluded airway serves as an index of respiratory muscle strength. We devised a method that permits accurate measurement of MIP, with...
