Еlectroneuromyographic Indices of Respiratory Muscles in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Abstract

Elektroneuromyographic studies were carried out according to the amplitude and muscular response of respiratory muscles to electrical stimulation in 28 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease of 2, 2-3, 3 severities at the age of 49 to 65 years. The revealed changes in the functional state of the respiratory muscles and the function of external respiration aggravate the progressive nature of the pathological process in the lungs in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease that requires timely prevention of respiratory failure and the choice of tactics of electrostimulation of respiratory muscles.
