The impact of extracorporeal diaphragm pacing therapy on diaphragm function in critically III patients dependent on mechanical ventilation: a double-blind randomized controlled trial
EDP therapy offers benefits in improving diaphragm function in critically ill patients on mechanical ventilation. It enhances diaphragm strength and endurance, increases diaphragm activity, improves pulmonary ventilation, and reduces mechanical ventilation duration.
