Abstract: Low resting inspiratory capacity (IC) and low maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) have previously been linked to exertional dyspnea, exercise limitation and poor survival in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The interaction and relative contributions of… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Inspiratory capacity (IC) is often overlooked as an important measured index of spirometry in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Abnormally low IC may indicate the onset of static/dynamic hyperinflation, which may be accompanied by… read more here.
