Abstract
PmW and PgasCough are simple and valuable tests to assess expiratory muscle strength in children and young adults with NMD. These tests are particularly useful in children having difficulties to perform PEmax manoeuvre. They have the great advantage of their simplicity, but PgasCough is limited by its invasiveness.
