Effect of body position on regional diaphragm function in dogs.
The in situ lengths of muscle bundles of the crural and three regions of the costal diaphragm between origin and insertion were determined with a video roentgenographic technique in dogs. At total lung capacity (TLC) in both the prone and supine positions, the length of the diaphragm is not significantly different from the unstressed excised length, suggesting that the diaphragm is not under te...
متن کاملBody position affects performance in untrained cyclists.
OBJECTIVE To compare cardiovascular and ventilatory variables in upright versus aero cycle ergometry at submaximal and maximal exercise intensities in untrained cyclists. METHOD Ten physically active men (mean (SD) age 19.1 (1.10) years) who were unfamiliar with aerobars underwent maximal exercise testing and steady state cycling at 50, 100, and 150 W. RESULTS Participants had significantly...
متن کاملEffects of salbutamol on rat diaphragm contractility.
The aim of this study was to investigate 1) the effects and time course of single doses of salbutamol on isometric contractile properties of isolated rat diaphragm strips and 2) whether these effects were caused by a direct effect on the muscle. Two experiments were performed. In one, salbutamol was administered subcutaneously in doses of 12.5, 25, 50, or 100 micrograms/kg (25 and 50 micrograms...
متن کاملAltering body position affects intraocular pressure and visual function.
Intraocular pressure (IOP) can be altered by changing body position. This report describes two experiments evaluating variations in IOP, as well as neural functioning of the retina and visual cortex (as measured by pattern-reversal electroretinogram and visual evoked potential), associated with whole-body, head-down tilt. The subjects, ten per experiment, were visually normal with IOP less than...
متن کاملUltrasonographic Assessment of Diaphragm Function in Critically Ill Subjects.
The majority of patients admitted to the ICU require mechanical ventilation as a part of their process of care. However, mechanical ventilation itself or the underlying disease can lead to dysfunction of the diaphragm, a condition that may contribute to the failure of weaning from mechanical ventilation. However, extended time on the ventilator increases health-care costs and greatly increases ...
