Respiratory and thoracoabdominal motion pattern at rest and after sub-maximum effort in children with asthma

Asthma involves an increase in airway resistance even in periods between attacks, which generates changes in thoracoabdominal kinematics. The aim of the present study was to detect these adaptations at rest and after physical effort. Evaluations were performed using optoelectronic plethysmography at...
