Résumé

This research investigates quadriceps muscle fatigability (MF) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with chronic respiratory failure (CRF) at different levels of lung obstruction [severe obstruction (SO)=FEV A post hoc cross-over analysis in 45 COPD patients (20 SO and 25 VSO) undergoing long-term oxygen therapy was performed. Delta change in quadriceps maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) (absolute value and percentage) before and after a constant workload was calculated. Associations between quadriceps MF and lung function, respiratory muscles, and gas exchange were examined using Pearson's correlation and multivariate linear regression analysis. SO patients experience a more substantial reduction in MVC compared to VSO (-15.15±9.13% vs -9.29±8.90%, p=0.0357), despite comparable resting MVC. Dyspnea is more pronounced in VSO at the beginning and end of the exercise. Correlations were found between MF and maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) (r=-0.4412, p=0.0056), maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) (r=-0.3561, p=0.0282), and a tendency for FEV COPD patients with more severe pulmonary obstruction and hyperinflation and lower respiratory muscle strength have lower quadriceps MF but higher dyspnea both at rest and during exercise.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
This research investigates quadriceps muscle fatigability (MF) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with chronic respiratory failure (CRF) at different levels of lung obstruction [severe obstruction (SO)=FEV
METHODS METHODS
A post hoc cross-over analysis in 45 COPD patients (20 SO and 25 VSO) undergoing long-term oxygen therapy was performed. Delta change in quadriceps maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) (absolute value and percentage) before and after a constant workload was calculated. Associations between quadriceps MF and lung function, respiratory muscles, and gas exchange were examined using Pearson's correlation and multivariate linear regression analysis.
RESULTS RESULTS
SO patients experience a more substantial reduction in MVC compared to VSO (-15.15±9.13% vs -9.29±8.90%, p=0.0357), despite comparable resting MVC. Dyspnea is more pronounced in VSO at the beginning and end of the exercise. Correlations were found between MF and maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) (r=-0.4412, p=0.0056), maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) (r=-0.3561, p=0.0282), and a tendency for FEV
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
COPD patients with more severe pulmonary obstruction and hyperinflation and lower respiratory muscle strength have lower quadriceps MF but higher dyspnea both at rest and during exercise.
