  • Abbreviations: ICC, intraclass correlation coefficient; NA, not applicable.

  • Note: In general, an ICC above 0.75 is an indicator of excellent reliability, while an ICC below 0.75 indicates good to poor reliability.19 ICCs of maximum pressure cannot be calculated due to missing variance after 90 minutes (Table 3).
