The Relation of Inspiratory Effort Sensation to Fatiguing Patterns of the Diaphragm1–3
Abstract
Tension in the respiratory muscles and the subsequent intrathoracic subatmospheric pressure swing plays a role in respiratory effort sensation. However, the role of a diaphragmatic fatiguing process in the genesis of this sensation has not been examined. Therefore, we studied the effect of fatiguing contractions of the diaphragm on inspiratory effort sensation (IES) in 6 normal male subjects during inspiratory resistive loading. Four …
