How is MIP measured?
What will be an ideal response?
MIP can be measured by using a T-piece with one port attached to the endotracheal or tracheostomy tube, one port attached to the negative pressure manometer, and one port attached to a special unidirectional valve that allows exhalation only. The patient is encouraged to exhale to residual volume and then inhale as forcefully as possible. The unidirectional valve allows the patient to exhale so that the subsequent MIP maneuvers can be performed from the residual volume level.
