| Valsalva manoeuvre | Any forced expiratory effort ("strain") against a closed airway, whether at the nose and mouth or at the glottis, the reverse of Muller's manoeuvre; because high intrathoracic pressure impedes venous return to the right atrium, this manoeuvre is used to study cardiovascular effects of raised peripheral venous pressure and decreased cardiac filling and cardiac output, as well as post-strain responses.

| Valsalva test | The heart is monitored by ECG, pressure recording, or other methods while the patient performs the Valsalva manoeuvre; the heart becomes smaller in normal persons but may dilate in the patient with impaired myocardial reserve; there is a characteristic complex sequence of cardiocirculatory events, departure from which indicates disease or malfunction.
