Effects of inspiratory muscle training in elderly women on respiratory muscle strength, diaphragm thickness and mobility.
BACKGROUND Aging results in a decline in the function of the respiratory muscles. Inspiratory muscle training is emerging as a possible intervention to attenuate the decline of respiratory muscles in the elderly. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of inspiratory muscle training on respiratory strength, diaphragm thickness, and diaphragmatic mobility in elderly women. METHODS T...
متن کاملDiaphragm Thickness and Inspiratory Muscle Functions in Chronic Stroke Patients
BACKGROUND The aims of this study are to investigate the difference between the diaphragm thickness at end expiration and the thickness at total lung capacity (TLC), and to examine differences in inspiratory muscle function between stroke patients and healthy individuals. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-five stroke patients and 49 healthy volunteers were included in this study. Diaphragm thickness w...

متن کاملDiaphragm thickness and inspiratory strength in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
BACKGROUND There is little information on the morphometric characteristics of the diaphragm in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. METHODS The thickness of the diaphragm was measured at the zone of apposition using B mode ultrasonography in 10 boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy of mean (SD) age 10.3 (1.3) years and 12 normal controls of mean (SD) age 11.3 (2.0) years during relaxati...
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...
