Andreoni2, Lerario2and Nery3 AbstractThe strength of the respiratory muscles can be evaluated from staticmeasurements ( Maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures, MIPand MEP) or inferred from dynamic maneuvers ( Maximal voluntaryventilation, MVV). Although these data could be suitable for a num-ber of clinical and research applications, no previous studies haveprovided Reference values for such tests using a healthy, randomlyselected sample of the adult Brazilian population.
