Lung volume recruitment acutely increases respiratory system compliance in individuals with severe respiratory muscle weakness

Lung volume recruitment acutely increases respiratory system compliance in individuals with severe respiratory muscle weakness

The aim of the present study was to determine whether lung volume recruitment (LVR) acutely increases respiratory system compliance (Crs) in individuals with severe respiratory muscle weakness (RMW). Individuals with RMW resulting from neuromuscular disease or quadriplegia (n=12) and healthy control...
