Changes in peak expiratory flow rates using two head-tilt/chin-lift maneuver angles in young healthy conscious volunteers.

Changes in peak expiratory flow rates using two head-tilt/chin-lift maneuver angles in young healthy conscious volunteers.

BACKGROUND:The head-tilt/chin-lift (HT/CL) maneuver is simple and routinely used to open a closed upper airway.
