Valsalva studied and lived in Bologna, where he was a pupil of Malpighi and teacher of Morgagni. He wrote the first book detailing the structure and function of the ear. Valsalva advocated expiration against a closed mouth and nose as a method to evacuate purulent matter from the brain. His hypothesis of foramina between the intracranial cavity and the ear was eventually not confirmed. The phenomenon of weakening and slowing of the pulse by an increase in intrathoracic pressure was first described in the 19th century, but has also been named the 'Valsalva manoeuvre'.
瓦尔萨尔瓦在博洛尼亚学习和生活，他是马尔皮基的学生，也是莫尔加尼的老师。他撰写了第一本详细阐述耳朵结构和功能的书籍。瓦尔萨尔瓦主张通过闭口和鼻呼气，作为从脑部排出脓性物质的一种方法。他关于颅内腔与耳朵之间存在孔道的假说最终未得到证实。胸腔内压力增加导致脉搏减弱和减慢的现象在19世纪首次被描述，但也被命名为“瓦尔萨尔瓦动作”。
