Bedrest alters respiratory muscle strength in patients immobilized due to fractured femurs
South African Journal of Physiotherapy, 2000 Bedrest produces decrements in the functioning of all physiological systems. Physiotherapists treat patients who are managed with Thomas splints following fractured femurs. The patients are generally compartmentally treated as orthopaedic patients.

Fatigue of the respiratory muscles
Intensive Care Medicine, 1996 The word "fatigue" has several meanings: in daily life, it is often used to express tiredness or weakness, whereas a technical definition may also include impaired intellectual or motor performance, increased EMG activity for a given performance, shift of the EMG power spectrum to lower frequencies, and/or the inability of muscle to generate force.

Respiratory muscle plasticity [PDF]
Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2005 Plasticity of respiratory muscles must be considered in the context of their unique physiological demands. The continuous rhythmic activation of respiratory muscles makes them among the most active in the body. Respiratory muscles, especially the diaphragm, are non-weight-bearing, and thus, in contrast to limb muscles, are not exposed to gravitational ...

Respiratory muscle senescence in ageing and chronic lung diseases
European Respiratory Review, 2020 Ageing is a progressive condition that usually leads to the loss of physiological properties. This process is also present in respiratory muscles, which are affected by both senescent changes occurring in the whole organism and those that are more ...

Basic principles of rehabilitation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Медицинский совет, 2014 One of the most common systemic defects in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is skeletal and respiratory muscle dysfunction. Physical exercise in the therapy of such patients therefore plays an important role.

Respiratory muscles in endocrinopathies
Respiratory Medicine, 1993 The aim of this review was to demonstrate that RM function is altered in various endocrinopathies and that RM weakness is a common finding. RM function has been well-studied in diseases such as thyroid dysfunction, and steroid induced RM myopathies.
