Intraoperative phrenic nerve stimulation to prevent diaphragm fiber weakness during thoracic surgery.

Intraoperative phrenic nerve stimulation to prevent diaphragm fiber weakness during thoracic surgery.

Thoracic surgery rapidly induces weakness in human diaphragm fibers. The dysfunction is thought to arise from combined effects of the surgical procedures and inactivity. This project tested whether brief bouts of intraoperative hemidiaphragm stimulation would mitigate slow and fast fiber loss of for...
