The role of the diaphragm in task failure during inspiratory resistive loading in the rabbit

In experimental animal models, fatigue of the diaphragm has been implicated as the predominant determinant of hypercapnic ventilatory failure and ultimately as the cause of task failure of inspiratory muscles during inspiratory resistive breathing. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect...
