Brief Summary:
The present study aims at enhancing our understanding of the influence of the mouthpiece configuration on the amplitude of oral pressures generated during a maximum expiratory pressure maneuver and on the neuromuscular recruitment of expiratory muscles more specifically of the internal oblique and the transverse abdominal muscles
Incidentally it also aims at clarifying the role of orofacial muscles if any in the neuromuscular recruitment of the aforementioned muscles

Detailed Description:
Enhancing our understanding of the influence of the mouthpiece configuration on oral pressures and on the neuromuscular recruitment of the internal oblique and the transverse abdominal muscles during a maximum expiratory pressure MEP maneuver is the primary goal of this study
Maximal Respiratory Mouth Pressures MIP and MEP
Maximal inspiratory pressure MIP and maximal expiratory pressure MEP are commonly used indices to assess respiratory muscle strength at the mouth
MIP measures the strength of inspiratory muscles while MEP assesses expiratory muscle strength
These measurements are simple convenient and noninvasive However clear standards for these measurements are not well-established
Choice of Mouthpiece
We propose exploring different mouthpiece designs to know their impact on pressure measurements
Influence of Mouthpiece Design
The type of mouthpiece used can affect pressure measurements Some investigators recommend including a small leak in the measuring circuit to dissipate pressure generated in the mouth and minimize measurement errors
However specific studies focusing on the influence of mouthpiece design on MEP and neuromuscular recruitment of expiratory muscles such as the internal oblique and transverse muscles during MEP maneuvers would be valuable
Additional Considerations
Factors like body position sitting vs half-lying may also impact pressure measurements although no significant differences were found in one study
Among the objectives of our study we aim at exploring ways to improve the accuracy and reliability of respiratory pressure measurements
In summary understanding the impact of mouthpiece design on oral pressures during MEP maneuvers is essential for accurate assessment of respiratory muscle function Further research in this area could provide valuable insights for clinical practice and pulmonary function laboratories
