Sitting or standing? mask or mouthpiece? study tests best way to measure cough strength
NCT ID NCT07631481
First seen Jun 11, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how body posture (sitting vs standing) and the type of device used (face mask vs mouthpiece) affect peak cough flow measurements in 24 healthy adults aged 20-30. Participants performed cough tests in four different setups during a single session. The goal was to see if using a face mask or allowing standing could be a reliable alternative when standard seated mouthpiece testing is not possible.
