| Abstract: | Individuals post-stroke may present restrictive ventilatory pattern generated from changes in the functionality of respiratory system due to muscle spasticity and contractures. Objective was to assess the acute effects after respiratory muscle stretching on the ventilatory pattern and volume distribution of the chest wall in stroke subjects. Ten volunteers with right hemiparesis after stroke and a mean age of 60 ± 5.7 years were randomised into the following interventions: respiratory muscle stretching and at rest (control). The ventilatory pattern and chest wall volume distribution were evaluated through optoelectronic plethysmography before and immediately after each intervention. Respiratory muscle stretching promoted a significant acute increase of 120 mL in tidal volume, with an increase in minute ventilation, mean inspiratory flow and mean expiratory flow compared with the control group. Pulmonary ribcage increased 50 mL after stretching, with 30 mL of contribution to the right pulmonary rib cage (hemiparetic side) in comparison to the control group. Respiratory muscle stretching in patients with right hemiparesis post-stroke demonstrated that acute effects improve the expansion of the respiratory system during tidal breathing. |
