No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Respiratory muscle strength is used as an outcome measure in intervention studies. There are reference values for respiratory muscle strength in 'healthy' people but not in those with bronchiectasis disease. The aim of this study is to investigate the reliability of respiratory muscle strength measurements and identify reference values for those with stable moderate to severe bronchiectasis disease.
