Validation of a protocol to evaluate maximal expiratory pressure using a pressure transducer and a signal conditioner
The respiratory muscles can present fatigue and even chronic inability to generate force. So, reliable devices are necessary to their evaluation. The aim of this study is to evaluate the MEP (Maximal Expiratory Pressure) values of individuals between 20 and 25 years old and to validate a protocol us...
