Abstract
Objective. We examined in rabbits the effects of more than 48 h of mechanical ventilation on the contractile properties and fiber type adaptations of the respiratory muscles. Design and setting. Experimental prospective study in a university laboratory. Animals and interventions. Nineteen rabbits were randomly allocated to two groups: control (n=10) or mechanically ventilated (MV; n=9) for 51±3 h. Measurements and results. Respiratory muscles...
