MIP-MEP module userÕs manual 1.3.2. MIP-MEP TEST PROCEDURE We suggest consulting some bibliography on the usual procedure required to perform the tests correctly. See section 4 of this manual. During the performance of the test, follow these steps: MIP-MEP PROBE Connect the MIP-MEP module to the spirometer (see section 2.3 of general user's manual).

MIP-MEP module userÕs manual To measure the MIP, the patient must perform a deep inspiration from the position of Residual Volume and maintain the effort for at least 3 seconds. To measure the MEP, the patient has to inspire previously up from the position of Total Pulmonary Capacity and from there blow with the maximum effort.
