18F‐FDG uptake in accessory respiratory muscles shows the respiratory effort of patients with pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis [PDF]

Respirology Case Reports, 2022
Patients with pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) have severe breathlessness even with mild hypoxaemia. In patients with PPFE, accessory respiratory muscles, such as the sternocleidomastoid muscles, are used to maintain ventilation.

Semi-automated Detection of the Timing of Respiratory Muscle Activity: Validation and First Application

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background: Respiratory muscle electromyography (EMG) can identify whether a muscle is activated, its activation amplitude, and timing. Most studies have focused on the activation amplitude, while differences in timing and duration of activity have been ...

Managing respiratory muscle weakness during weaning from invasive ventilation

European Respiratory Review, 2023
Weaning is a critical stage of an intensive care unit (ICU) stay, in which the respiratory muscles play a major role. Weakness of the respiratory muscles, which is associated with significant morbidity in the ICU, is not limited to atrophy and subsequent
