Comparison of Respiratory Muscle Electromyography between Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis and Healthy Subjects

Purpose: Scoliosis is one of the most common spinal deformities that affect chest wall mechanics. Scoliosis results in ventilator disorders and respiratory muscle weakness. However, the mechanism of these disorders is still unknown. The main objective of this study was to identify the intensity of respiratory muscles activity in patients with idiopathic scoliosis compare with healthy indi...

Ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction: time for (contr)action!

During the past 10 years, intensive experimental research has focused on the effects of mechanical ventilation on the diaphragm. Whatever the animal species studied, all these studies have consistently shown that mechanical ventilation impaired diaphragm function, resulting in the so-called ventilatorinduced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD) [1–9]. The development of this effect is rapid and worsens...

Cervical spinal cord injury exacerbates ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction.

Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) can dramatically impair diaphragm muscle function and often necessitates mechanical ventilation (MV) to maintain adequate pulmonary gas exchange. MV is a life-saving intervention. However, prolonged MV results in atrophy and impaired function of the diaphragm. Since cervical SCI can also trigger diaphragm atrophy, it may create preconditions that exacerbate ven...

The Effect of Corrugations on Mechanical Sensitivity of Diaphragm for MEMS Capacitive Microphone

In this paper the effect of corrugated diaphragm on performance of MEMS microphone is described. The corrugated diaphragm is modeled in order to improve the sensitivity of micromachined silicon acoustic sensor. Analytical analyzes have been carried out to derive mathematic expressions for the mechanical sensitivity and displacement of corrugated diaphragm with residual stress. It is shown that ...

Fabrication and Characterization of a New MEMS Capacitive Microphone using Perforated Diaphragm

In this paper, a novel single-chip MEMS capacitive microphone is presented. The novelties of this method relies on the moveable aluminum (Al) diaphragm positioned over the backplate electrode, where the diaphragm includes a plurality of holes to allow the air in the gap between the electrode and diaphragm to escape and thus reduce acoustical damping in the microphone. Spin-on-glass (SOG) was us...
