Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the reference value ranges for healthy adults of the incremental threshold load test, which evaluates respiratory muscle endurance.

Detailed description

Since respiratory muscles are used in daily life at the submaximal level, evaluation of their endurance is more meaningful functionally. In addition, evaluation of endurance with respiratory muscle strength is effective in determining respiratory muscle dysfunction. Failure to routinely evaluate respiratory muscle endurance, which is one of the main components of respiratory muscle function, may lead to failure to identify respiratory muscle dysfunction in early stage respiratory patients who have not yet developed muscle strength loss. However, normal value ranges have not been determined for the respiratory muscle endurance test. Determining the normal value ranges for this test will help determine muscle fatigue and investigate the physiological course in respiratory diseases.
