“…One of the consequences of such changes is that there is a significant increase in the work of breathing and a reduction in the ability of the diaphragm to generate effective pressures, leading to a progressive neuromechanical dissociation and dyspnea. (2,(6)(7)(8)(9)(10) Dyspnea can also be induced by EFL per se, probably through reflexes originating from the dynamic compression of the intrathoracic airways. (27) The findings of the present study corroborate the concept that DH plays an important role as an etiological factor for exercise limitation in patients with moderate to severe COPD.…”

“…7) Tiotropium has been reported to improve dynamic hyperinflation in COPD patients. 8) Since LV diastolic dysfunction has been associated with hyperinflation in COPD patients, 9) it is plausible to expect that tiotropium will affect LV diastolic function. However, the effects of tiotropium on LV diastolic function have not been clear.…”
