Sonographic follow-up of diaphragm function in COVID-19: an exploratory study

ERJ Open Research, 2023
Introduction Survivors of COVID-19 frequently endure chronic disabilities. We hypothesise that diaphragm function has a long recovery time after COVID-19 hospitalisation and may play a role in post-COVID-19 syndrome.

Respiratory and bulbar dysfunctions in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: electrophysiologic and muscle ultrasound assessment

The Egyptian Journal of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery
Background The main causes of death in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are respiratory and bulbar dysfunctions. Phrenic nerve conduction studies and diaphragm ultrasound can be used to assess the diaphragmatic function which is the primary muscle of ...

Diaphragm: Pathophysiology and Ultrasound Imaging in Neuromuscular Disorders

Journal of Neuromuscular Diseases, 2018
Respiratory muscles are classically involved in neuromuscular disorders, leading to a restrictive respiratory pattern. The diaphragm is the main respiratory muscle involved during inspiration. Ultrasound imaging is a noninvasive, radiation-free, accurate and safe technique allowing assessment of diaphragm anatomy and function.

Ultrasound Assessment of Diaphragmatic Function in Children With Cerebral Palsy: A Cross‐Sectional Observational Case‐Control Study

Health Science Reports
Background and Aims Children with cerebral palsy (CP) are vulnerable to respiratory infections and chronic airway inflammation, which leads to diminished respiratory function. This decline is exacerbated by muscle tone abnormalities and reduced strength,

Visual Patterns of Diaphragmatic Motion in Acute Respiratory Failure: A Prospective Pilot Study

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 421-428, March/April 2025.
In this prospective bicentric study, we studied the relationship between the appearance of diaphragmatic motion and the etiological diagnosis of patients admitted to the emergency department with ARF. We observed a different visual pattern in patients with pneumonia. This is an interesting result as it allows the diagnosis of pneumonia without the need
