Filter by:This study was conducted to investigate Effect of manual diaphragmatic activation on diaphragm function in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease
The aims of the current study are as follows: i) Investigate the relationships between indices derived from ultrafast ultrasound imaging and Pditw, ii) Investigate the relationships between indices derived from ultrafast ultrasound imaging and diaphragm EMG, iii) Investigate the performance of ultrafast ultrasound for the diagnosis of diaphragm dysfunction, iv) Investigate the ability of ultrafast ultrasound imaging to decipher the cause of diaphragm dysfunction i.e. contractility alteration and/or phrenic nerves conduction defect.
This non-interventional study focuses on mechanical ventilation used in intensive care unit to supplement ventilatory function in patients. Mechanical ventilation can "paradoxically" be at the origin of complications that can be life-threatening in patients. This muscular pathology is called ventilation-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (DDIV). Diaphragmatic muscle collected during a digestive surgery for a benign or malignant tumor of the liver requiring surgical excision in contact with the diaphragm from the care will be conserved. The diaphragm biopsy from the care will be retained for biobanking to obtain myoblast in culture which will differentiate in Diaphragm fiber. Then these fibers will be submitted under mechanical stress condition similar to those imposed in vivo by mechanical ventilation to validate in human a model in vitro of diaphragm dysfunction induced by mechanical ventilation. Then the second part of the study will be to evaluate with this model, the efficiency of an antioxidant therapy.
