In inches do the inspiration numbers go up or down when measuring with cloth tape with forced expiration?
When measuring chest circumference with a cloth tape during forced expiration, the inspiration numbers typically go down. This is because forced expiration reduces the volume of air in the lungs, leading to a smaller chest circumference compared to inspiration, when the lungs are filled with air and the chest expands.
