Abstract
Respiratory functional assessment in patients with neuromuscular diseases allows us to quantify lung volumes and capacities, cough flows and the effectiveness of of ventilation. Pulse oximetry and non-invasive monitoring of exhaled carbon dioxide are also essential for the non-invasive assessment of hypoventilation associated with ventilatory muscle and cough insufficiency. In this way, it is possible to detect the objective needs for therapeutic assistance and implement health policies appropriate to the needs of this population.
