RESUMO
Higenbottam, T., Allen, D., Loh, L., and Clark, T. J. H. (1977).Thorax,32, 589-595. Abdominal wall movement in normals and patients with hemidiaphragmatic and bilateral diaphragmatic palsy. The abdomen and ribcage volume contribution to the tidal volume have been determined using magnetometers in three groups of subjects—normal males, patients with hemidiaphragmatic palsy, and patients with bilateral diaphragmatic palsy. In all three groups the main moving parts appear to be the anterior surfaces of the abdomen and ribcage even in the presence of bilateral diaphragmatic palsy.
