Neck and abdominal muscle activity during a sniff [PDF]
Respiratory Medicine, 2003 Measurement of sniff nasal inspiratory pressure (SNIP) is now used widely as a simple, non-invasive assessment of global respiratory muscle strength, even though the technique evolved originally from measurements of trans-diaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) that reflect the status of the diaphragm.
