General characteristics.

Characteristics	Data
	(n=25)
Age (yr)	30.6 ± 4.2
Male sex	19 (76)
Height (cm)	170.7 ± 7.4
Weight (kg)	69.5 ± 11.9
IBW (kg)	65.5 ± 8.4
†BSA (m^2)	1.8 ± 0.1
‡Predicted tidal volume (ml⋅kg^−1)	458.8 ± 58.3
BMI (kg⋅m^−2)	23.6 ± 2.6
Underlying lung disease	None

Categorical variables are given as numbers (percentage). Continuous variables are given as mean ± SD.
Calculated by Devine formula; IBW (male) = 50 + 2.3 x (height over 60 inches); IBW (female) = 45.5 + 2.3 x (height over 60 inches)
† Calculated by Mosteller formula; BSA (m²) = (Height (cm) x Weight (kg) / 3600)^1/2
‡ Calculated by the formula for tidal volume in health young adults; 7 (ml) x IBW (kg)
Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; BSA, body surface area; IBW, ideal body weight; SD, standard deviation
