Diagnostic methods to assess inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength*
Impairment of (inspiratory and expiratory) respiratory muscles is a common clinical finding, not only in patients with neuromuscular disease but also in patients with primary disease of the lung parenchyma or airways. Although such impairment is common, its recognition is usually delayed because its signs and symptoms are nonspecific and late. This delayed recognition, or even the lack thereof,...
متن کاملExpiratory and expiratory plus inspiratory muscle training improves respiratory muscle strength in subjects with COPD: systematic review.
BACKGROUND Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) produces beneficial effects in COPD subjects, but the effects of expiratory muscle training (EMT) and EMT plus IMT in ventilatory training are still unclear. The aim of this study was to systematically review the effects of EMT and EMT plus IMT compared to control groups of COPD subjects. METHODS This study is a systematic review and meta-analysis....
متن کاملInspiratory muscle strength in asthma.
Augmentation of inspiratory muscle strength (Pimax) represents an adaptive response to airway obstruction. We explore the possibility that respiratory muscle weakness may herald hospital admission during acute bronchospasm. The Pimax measured 81 +/- 25 percent of a predicted value in 20 patients with acute bronchospasm (forced expiratory volume in one second, 36 +/- 17 percent predicted). Pimax...
متن کاملInspiratory muscle strength and Borg dyspnoea score.
In our original article we outlined the type of somato-psychosomatic feedback cycle occurring in panic attacks in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that F. Kummer has further elaborated in his correspondence. In fact, this type of feedback cycle is described in the most widely accepted theory of panic attacks and panic disorder in the physically healthy, the cognitive (or ‘‘catastrop...
متن کاملEvolution of inspiratory and expiratory muscle pressures during endurance exercise.
We investigated the relationship between minute ventilation (VE) and net respiratory muscle pressure (Pmus) throughout the breathing cycle [Total Pmus = mean Pmus, I (inspiratory) + mean Pmus, E (expiratory)] in six normal subjects performing constant-work heavy exercise (CWHE, at approximately 80% maximum) to exhaustion on a cycle ergometer. Pmus was calculated as the sum of chest wall pressur...
