The birth and development of the forced expiratory manoeuvre: a tribute to Robert Tiffeneau (1910-1961)

Abstract: The forced expiratory manoeuvre was first described by Tiffeneau and Pinelli working in Paris (France), in December 1947, who proposed measurement of the "pulmonary capacity usable on exercise" (capacite pulmonaire utilisable a l'effort) (CPUE), the maximal volume expelled in one second after a deep inspiration. It was intended to replace the measurement of the maximum breathing capacity, a difficult and tiring manoeuvre. A similar approach was later followed in the USA by Gaensler, who proposed the "timed vit… Show more

“…However, the diagnosis of asthma is confirmed by the demonstration of a reversible airflow obstruction which can easily be performed in patients of over 5 years of age (1428) using the following tests: FEV 1 , its accompanying forced vital capacity (1428,2072,2073) and the peak expiratory flow (1428,2074). These tests can be used for recording the reversibility of airway obstruction after inhaled short-acting ß 2 -agonists.…”

“…In his historical note, YERNAULT [1] mentions that Tiffenau and Pinelli published the first results from recording forced expiration manoeuvres in 1947. A couple of years later, the Tiffeneau test was developed, defining the ratio between the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and the vital capacity (VC).…”
