[Evaluation of the flow/volume curve in normal subjects. Study of the flow fall index].
Variations in the flow/volume curve have been examined in normal subjects in relation to age. It was noted that although flow varies in absolute terms, its fall is constant in both men and women, at equal age. On the other hand, a flow reduction first of 25% and then 50% of CVF was noted in relation to age.
