Part Description
LP208610-8 Expiratory pressure.max
Maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) is the maximum pressure that can be generated against an occluded airway beginning at functional residual capacity (FRC) and reflects the strength and function of inspiratory muscles. Maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) reflects the strength and function of expiratory muscles. MIP and MEP can be used to diagnose, assess the severity, and monitor treatment of respiratory muscle weakness.
