Inspiratory and expiratory tracheal pressures during high‐intensity exercise in harness racehorses
Abstract Background Exercise‐related upper respiratory tract (URT) disorders are common in racehorses. Objective assessment of URT mechanics is essential to quantify degrees of obstruction caused by URT disorders identified upon dynamic endoscopy. Objectives To establish reference values for inspiratory and expiratory tracheal pressures (cmH2O) during ...
