Description

Respiratory Muscles in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease offers a deep look into how lung diseases like emphysema and chronic bronchitis impact the body's ventilatory pump. While these conditions are primarily lung diseases, their consequences extend to the respiratory muscles, which can suffer from shortened inspiratory function due to lung hyperinflation and increased airway resistance. This text examines how changes in nutritional status and increased physical demand can weaken these muscles, potentially leading to severe dyspnea. For professionals in physiotherapy and allied health, this book provides essential context on how respiratory muscle malfunction contributes to the progression of COPD. Covering a decade of rapid advancements, the content addresses the explosion of information regarding muscle function in both health and disease states. It also introduces new techniques used for the evaluation of these muscles, making it a valuable resource for understanding the mechanics of breathing in patients with chronic respiratory conditions.
