Issue Date: | Dec-2022 | Publication information: | BMJ Open Respiratory Research 2022 | Abstract: | Reduced lung volumes are a hallmark of respiratory muscle weakness in neuromuscular disease (NMD). Low respiratory system compliance (Crs) may contribute to restriction and be amenable to lung volume recruitment (LVR) therapy. This study evaluated respiratory function and the immediate impact of LVR in rapidly progressive compared to slowly progressive NMD. | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/31940 | DOI: | 10.1136/bmjresp-2022-001241 | ORCID: | 0000-0003-1847-4266 0000-0003-2543-8722 |
