Abstract Background: It is not known whether respiratory muscle fatigue occurs as a consequence of exercise in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and, if so, to what extent it is related to changes in dynamic lung volumes. Objectives: To assess the development of respiratory muscle fatigue in patients with ILD and relate it to the respiratory pattern during exercise. Methods: Sixteen ILD patients (11 women) performed incremental, symptom-limited cycle ergometry with inspiratory capacity manoeuvres used to measure changes in end-expiratory lung volume (EELV). Twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure (TwPdi) and twitch gastric pressure (TwT 10 Pga), in response to magnetic stimulation, were used to assess the development of fatigue.

Abstract

Abstract Background: It is not known whether respiratory muscle fatigue occurs as a consequence of exercise in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and, if so, to what extent it is related to changes in dynamic lung volumes. Objectives: To assess the development of respiratory muscle fatigue in patients with ILD and relate it to the respiratory pattern during exercise. Methods: Sixteen ILD patients (11 women) performed incremental, symptom-limited cycle ergometry with inspiratory capacity manoeuvres used to measure changes in end-expiratory lung volume (EELV). Twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure (TwPdi) and twitch gastric pressure (TwT 10 Pga), in response to magnetic stimulation, were used to assess the development of fatigue.
