研究组 & 干预措施
Bilateral rapid magnetic stimulation of the phrenic nerves
Each participant will be tested on three different days with optimal settings for bilateral rapid magnetic stimulation of the phrenic nerves established on visit 1 and then repeated on visits 2 and 3.
干预措施: Magnetic phrenic nerve stimulation (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Diaphragm contractility
时间窗: Continuously measured from 10 sec before until 10 sec after each stimulation. One stimulation lasts for approx. 1 sec
Transdiaphragmatic pressure changes, i.e. changes in esophageal and gastric pressures, will be measured by a pressure transducer connected to balloon-catheters.
