Abstract

Central neural drive to the respiratory muscles can be assessed by a variety of methods. These include measurement of respiratory nerve and muscle electrical activity, measurement of the pressures generated by the contraction of respiratory muscles, and measurement of the final output of the respiratory system––ventilation. We have assessed these output parameters in normal subjects during CO2 rebreathing with and without externally applied loads and during sleep in patients with sleep disorders.
