I.Maximal inspired pressure
II.Minute ventilation
III.Forced vital capacity
IV.Tidal volume
V.Maximal expiratory pressure

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Maximal inspired pressure, forced vital capacity, and maximal expiratory pressure are all measures of respiratory function and can indicate declines in patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome. Minute ventilation and tidal volume are also important measures, but may not necessarily track the decline in the same way as the other three options. Therefore, choice A is the best answer.
