A simple test of glottic efficiency is Maximum Phonation Time (MPT) . MPT is the maximum time (in seconds) for which a person can sustain a vowel sound when produced on one deep breath at a relatively comfortable pitch and loudness.Like the S/Z Ratio, this is a quick and simple aerodynamic measure. Using a stopwatch, time (in seconds) how long the client can sustain the vowel. 2  Record the time as the duration of 1st âahâ . 3  Repeat Step 1 and record the time as duration of 2nd âahâ . 4  Repeat Step 1 and record the time as duration of 3rd âahâ . 5  The MPT is the longest duration âahâ of the three attempts.
Partial thromboplastin time (PTT) measures the overall speed at which blood clots by means of two consecutive series of biochemical reactions known as the intrinsic (now referred to as the contact activation pathway) and common coagulation pathways.
