Typical MIPs in adult males can be estimated from the equation M IP = 142 - (1.03 x Age) cmH 2 O, where age is in years. [6] This test is performed at RV (Residual Volume), the amount of air remaining in the patient's lungs after fully exhaling. The patient then inhales as hard and as fast as possible with maximal sustained effort for longer ...
