May approach 40 mmHg in this model; leaves open clinical efficacy for SVT and requires human trials before adoption.
Does blowing into a 10 mL syringe generate the 40 mmHg pressure required for the Valsalva manoeuvre?
Blowing into a 10 mL syringe is a practical and effective method to generate the 40 mmHg intrathoracic pressure recommended for the Valsalva manoeuvre in SVT management.
Smith et al. (2009) studied this question.
