Postoperative Abdominal Muscle Spasm
Archives of Surgery, 1957Every laparotomy is followed by several days of discomfort, but postoperative pain varies greatly among patients. Such discomfort may include (1) ordinary abdominal wall pain due to cutting and retraction of nerves and muscles; (2) distention of the gastrointestinal tract because of ileus, an almost invariable accompaniment of intraabdominal surgery ...

The Abdominal Muscles and Vertebral Stability
Spine, 1987It has been suggested that the muscles of the anterolateral abdominal wall increase the stability of the lumbar region of the vertebral column by tensing the thoracolumbar fascia and by raising intra-abdominal pressure. In this report these new mechanisms are reviewed and their contribution to vertebral stability assessed.

The Anatomy of the Abdominal Muscles of the Chinchilla
Research in Veterinary Science, 1967SUMMARY The abdominal muscles of the male and female chinchilla are described and illustrated. An external inguinal ring is present, but the extensive contributions of internal oblique and transverse abdominal muscles to the cremasteric sac make it difficult to define clearly the internal inguinal ring.

Abdominal Muscle Strength in Patients with Tetraplegia.
Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy Journal, 2000Abstract The abdominal muscles are completely paralyzed after traumatic transection of the cervical cord. To assess the residual pressure-generating capacity of these muscles, we first measured the changes in gastric pressure ( Δ Pga) during paired bilateral stimulation of the lower thoracic nerve roots in eight chronic patients with ...

Rehabilitative Ultrasound Imaging of the Abdominal Muscles
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2007Rehabilitative ultrasound imaging (RUSI) of the abdominal muscles is increasingly being used in the management of conditions involving musculoskeletal dysfunctions associated with the abdominal muscles, including certain types of low back and pelvic pain.

Progress in Neurobiology, 1998
Abdominal muscles serve many roles; in addition to breathing, especially at higher levels of chemical drive or at increased end-expiratory lung volumes, they are responsible for, or contribute to, such protective reflexes as cough, sneeze, and vomiting, generate the high intra-abdominal pressures necessary for defecation and parturition, are active ...

Hernia Due to Banding of the Abdominal Muscles
Archives of Surgery, 1968SUPERIMPOSED parallel slits between bands of the internal oblique and transversus abdominis muscles occasionally open to allow formation of a hernia at the level of the semicircular line of Douglas, which enters a shallow subaponeurotic space lateral to the rectus sheath and deep to the aponeurosis of the external oblique.

Mechanics of the abdominal muscles in rabbits and dogs
Respiration Physiology, 1994In anesthetized, apneic rabbits and dogs, direct tetanic stimulations of the abdominal muscles (AMS) were performed at different tracheal pressures (Ptr) in the supine and upright posture. Lung volume (V), esophageal (Pes) and abdominal pressure (Pab), circumference of the upper and lower lung apposed rib cage (Crc, u and Crc, l) and of the abdomen ...

Fibre types in human abdominal muscles
Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, 1979Histochemical muscle fibre composition was studied in biopsies from the four different muscles of the abdominal wall (rectus abdominis, RA, obliquus externus, OE, obliquus internus, OI, and transversus abdominis, Tr) in 13 normal human subjects (9 females and 4 males, age 24–55 years) undergoing gall‐bladder surgery.
