THE CHARACTERISTICS OF FUNCTIONAL CONDITIONS OF RESPIRATORY MUSCULATURE ACCORDING THE DATA OF ELECTRONEUROMIOGRAPHY IN PATIENTS WITH OBESITY

Abstract

The reliable dependence of the degree of alterations of parameters of M-response of diaphragm from degree of obesity and age is established. The amplitude and area of M-response of diaphragm progressively decreased following age increase. At the same time, the duration of M-response increased. The decrease of amplitude of intercostal muscles was detected. Most likely, these alterations testify the alteration of innervation at the level of diaphragm itself and intercostal muscles possibly due to atrophy of neurons and/or decrease of mediator release into neuromuscular synapse.
