Effects of Rib Cage Joint Mobilization Combined with Diaphragmatic Breathing Exercise on the Pulmonary Function and Chest Circumference in Patients with Stroke

Journal of international academy of physical therapy research, 2020
Background: Patients with stroke have core muscle weakness and limited rib cage movement, resulting in restrictive lung disease. Objectives: To examine the comparison of effects of rib cage joint mobilization combined with diaphragmatic breathing ...

Diaphragmatic Thickening Fraction by Ultrasound in Mechanically Ventilated Pediatric Patients: Pilot Observations During Spontaneous Breathing Trials

Journal of ultrasound in medicine, 2022
In critically ill, mechanically ventilated adults, diaphragmatic atrophy and reduced diaphragmatic thickening fraction (DTF) has been associated with poor extubation outcomes. Diaphragmatic ultrasound assessment in critically ill pediatric patients shows

Diaphragmatic Breathing Reduces Efficiency of Breathing in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1995
The effects of diaphragmatic breathing learning on chest wall motion, mechanical efficiency of the respiratory muscles, breathing pattern, and dyspnea sensation were studied in seven patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (FEV1 34 +/- 7% of the predicted value) during loaded and unloaded breathing.

Diaphragmatic breathing as treatment for escape‐maintained aggression

Behavioral Interventions, 2019
Coping skills, such as diaphragmatic breathing, are commonly recommended to help individuals work through challenging situations. We evaluated diaphragmatic breathing as treatment for aggression of three individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder or Angelman syndrome.

Healing Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diaphragmatic Breathing

Biofeedback, 2017
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) affects 7 to 21% of the general population and is a chronic condition. The symptoms usually include abdominal cramping, discomfort or pain, bloating, loose or frequent stools and constipation, and can significantly reduce the quality of life.

Diaphragmatic breathing for rumination syndrome: efficacy and mechanisms of action

Neurogastroenterology & Motility, 2015
AbstractBackgroundWhile high resolution esophageal manometry combined with impedancometry has demonstrated that gastric pressurizations lead to rumination, the contribution of upper esophageal sphincter (UES) and esophagogastric junction (EGJ) function to rumination is unclear. Behavioral therapy with diaphragmatic breathing (DB) can reduce rumination.

Diethylmaleate produces diaphragmatic impairment after resistive breathing

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1993
Formation of oxygen-derived free radicals and activation of the glutathione (GSH) redox cycle has been associated with impaired rat diaphragm performance. Diethylmaleate (DEM) given intraperitoneally irreversibly conjugates with GSH, resulting in marked decreases in tissue concentrations of GSH.

Diaphragmatic Breathing and Its Effectiveness for the Management of Motion Sickness

Aerospace Medicine and Human Performance, 2015
BACKGROUND: Motion sickness is an unpleasant physiological state that may be controlled via nonpharmacological methods. Controlled breathing has been shown to maximize parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) tone and may have the ability to decrease motion sickness symptoms.METHODS: The effects of slow diaphragmatic breathing (DB) in a motion sickness ...

Changes in human diaphragmatic electromyogram with positive pressure breathing

Neuroscience Letters, 1986
An increase in diaphragmatic electromyogram (EMG) recorded via oesophageal electrodes during positive pressure breathing has been reported to indicate an increase in the neural outflow to the muscle. However, using similar techniques, the size of compound muscle action potentials produced by supramaximal phrenic nerve stimulation also increased during ...
