Diaphragm Dysfunction After Cardiac Surgery. [PDF]
Braz J Cardiovasc SurgINTRODUCTION: Diaphragm elevation is commonly seen after cardiac surgery, mostly due to phrenic nerve injury. However, only historical data is available on the incidence of diaphragm elevation and its consequences during recovery. OBJECTIVE: We aim to provide contemporary insights into the incidence of diaphragm dysfunction in patients undergoing ...

Diaphragm dysfunction: how to diagnose and how to treat? [PDF]
Breathe (Sheff)The diaphragm, crucial for respiratory function, is susceptible to dysfunction due to various pathologies that can affect the nervous system, neuromuscular junction or the muscle itself. Diaphragmatic dysfunction presents with symptoms ranging from exertional dyspnoea to respiratory failure, significantly impacting patients’ quality of life.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2012 Dysfunction of one or both hemidiaphragms is an underdiagnosed cause of dyspnea. Weakness or paralysis may be seen during mechanical ventilation, after surgery or trauma, with metabolic or inflammatory disorders, and with myopathy, neuropathy, or diseases causing lung hyperinflation.
