RESUMO

Respiratory complications are common in the patient with muscular dystrophy. The periodic clinical and instrumental respiratory evaluation is extremely important. Despite the presence in the literature of updated guidelines, patient associations often report lack of knowledge of these pathologies, particularly in peripheral hospitals. The purpose of this work, inspired by the Italian Muscular Dystrophy Association (UILDM) is to improve management of respiratory problems necessary for the management of these patients complex. To this end, the main items that the specialist can meet in the follow-up of these pathologies have been analyzed and discussed, among which the respiratory basal evaluation, the criteria of adaptation to non-invasive ventilation, management of bronchial secretions, situations of respiratory emergency, indications for tracheostomy and the subject of advance directives of treatment (DAT).

RESUMO

Introduction: Functional impairment in patients with high spinal cord injuries is associated to ventilatory dysfunction due to paretic respiratory muscles, which causes alterations in the ventilatory and in the cough mechanisms. Respiratory muscle training has been studied as a therapeutic alternative for this group of patients with no conclusive results, whereas a mixed protocol, which stimulates both inspiratory and expiratory muscles, had not been previously investigated. Objective: To evaluate the effects of systematic respiratory muscle training during four months, on pulmonary function, respiratory muscles strength and effort tolerance, cough efficacy and dyspnea perception, in a group of quadriplegic patients with at least one year of evolution post injury. Method: A quasi-experimental design was used. Six adults with cervical spinal cord injuries were enlisted and incorporated in a mixed respiratory muscles training for four months. Pulmonary function, respiratory muscles strength and resistance, cough efficacy and dyspnea perception were assessed pre and post training. Results: The application of the mixed training protocol significantly improved inspiratory muscle strength (p = 0,028),respiratory muscles effort tolerance (p = 0,028) and cough efficacy (p = 0,034).The other measures did not reach statistical significance. Conclusion: Mixed(inspiratory/expiratory) muscular training, shows partially favorable results in the improvement of pulmonary function. Studies using greater numbers of patients are necessary to achieve more categorical results.


Introducción: El compromiso funcional en pacientes con lesiones medulares altas se asocia a disfunción ventilatoria por paresia de musculatura respiratoria y provoca alteraciones ventilatorias y en el mecanismo de la tos. El entrenamiento de la musculatura respiratoria ha sido analizado como alternativa terapéutica para neumo este grupo de pacientes sin resultados concluyentes, mientras que un protocolo mixto, que estimule músculos inspiratorios y espiratorios no ha sido estudiado con anterioridad. Objetivo: Evaluar la respuesta del sistema respiratorio al entrenamiento sistemático de la musculatura respiratoria durante cuatro meses, sobre la función pulmonar, fuerza y tolerancia al esfuerzo de la musculatura respiratoria, eficacia de la tos y percepción de disnea de un grupo de pacientes tetrapléjicos. Materiales y Métodos: Se aplicó un diseño cuasi-experimental. Seis pacientes con lesiones medulares cervicales de al menos un año de evolución fueron reclutados e incluidos en un programa de entrenamiento mixto de la musculatura respiratoria durante 4 meses. Se evaluó la función pulmonar, fuerza y resistencia de la musculatura respiratoria, eficacia de la tos y percepción de disnea antes y después del período de entrenamiento. Resultados: El protocolo de entrenamiento mixto aplicado incrementó significativamente la fuerza muscular inspiratoria (p= 0,028), la tolerancia al esfuerzo de los músculos respiratorios (p = 0,028) y la eficacia de la tos (p = 0,034). El incremento en todas las otras variables medidas no alcanzó significancia estadística. Conclusión: El entrenamiento muscular mixto(inspiratorio/espiratorio) muestra resultados parcialmente favorables en la mejoría de indicadores de función pulmonar. Estudios de mayor número de pacientes son necesarios para acceder a resultados más categóricos.
