Summary Introduction
To review:
The movement of the equal pressure point if the patient made a stronger muscular effort.
Introduction:
The equal pressure point is the point in the forced expiratory maneuver when the pressure in the airway decreases from the alveoli and the pressure within the lumen becomes equal to the pressure of the surrounding. The equal pressure point is one of the physiologic effects that affects the spirometry.
Please refer to Clinical Application Case-1 for further information.
