Measurement of twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure: surface versus needle electrode stimulation.

The transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) generated during bilateral supramaximal phrenic nerve stimulation at 1 Hz from surface stimulating electrodes was compared with pressures obtained from needle electrodes inserted under local anaesthesia. Surface electrodes were used to obtain diaphragmatic electromyograms and magnetometers to monitor rib cage and abdominal configuration. Twitch Pdi was reco...

Limitations of measurement of transdiaphragmatic pressure in detecting diaphragmatic weakness.

Intrathoracic (oesophageal), intra-abdominal (gastric), and transdiaphragmatic (Pdi) pressures were studied in 20 untrained, healthy subjects during a full inspiration and repeated maximal static inspiratory efforts. The pattern of pressure generation during these two types of respiratory manoeuvre was highly reproducible in each subject. By contrast, it varied over a wide range among individua...

Postprandial effects on twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure.

Twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi,tw), measured following magnetic stimulation of the phrenic nerves, is used to assess diaphragm strength, contractility and fatigue. Although the effects of posture, lung volume and potentiation on Pdi,tw are well described, it is not known whether the degree of gastric filling affects the measurement. Pdi,tw was recorded in seven healthy volunteers on tw...

The effect of core exercises on transdiaphragmatic pressure.

Abdominal exercises, such as sit ups and leg lifts, are used to enhance strength of the core muscles. An overlooked aspect of abdominal exercises is the compression the abdomen, leading to increased diaphragmatic work. We hypothesized that core exercises would produce a variety of transdiaphragmatic pressures. We also sought to determine if some of the easy exercises would produce pressures suf...

The effect of lung volume on transdiaphragmatic pressure.

Diaphragm strength can be assessed by measurement of transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) in response to stimulation of the phrenic nerves. The length-tension relationship of the diaphragm can be studied by measuring twitch Pdi over the range of lung volume. Previous studies of the relationship between lung volume and diaphragm strength have used the technique of electrical stimulation of the phre...
