Elevation of the Diaphragm

**Diaphragm elevation**

The human respiratory system is under constant control. To prevent breathing from becoming difficult, proper breathing technique is necessary to allow proper use of all body functions. Many people know how to breathe correctly, but cannot put their knowledge into practice. When a person takes a deep breath, his diaphragm contracts. The muscles of the diaphragm act on the chest cavity

The meaning of elevation (rise) of the diaphragm: 1. Increase in its dome with normal tone of the upper and lower sections of the diaphragm. Spastic contraction occurs as a result of overstretching of the diaphragmatic muscles (usually I and II). In some cases, it is caused by constipation, gastritis, gastric ulcers, biliary dyskinesia, vascular and endocrine disorders of the pancreas. 2. More often caused by venous congestion in the large vessels of the diaphragm due to increased intrathoracic pressure during abdominal surgery, pneumonia, lung cancer, heart disease, liver disease, and whooping cough. May be a physiological reaction to myopia at the end of the day. A reflex form that occurs spontaneously in time, representing a myoclonic asynchronous contraction of predominantly the I (upper) and II (anterior and lateral) upper domes of the diaphragm, as a rule, while maintaining the tone of its remaining parts (abdominal type.) Mechanism of development Diaphragmatic breathing. When a person inhales, the force of the air increases due to the contraction of the respiratory muscles and

Elevation of the diaphragm is a diaphragmatic “rise” (“tension of the diaphragm muscles”), a fixed “clamp” of the diaphragm in the rise (“protrusion of the stomach upward”). ED is a medical indication (disease), a variant of complaints from orthopedics, diseases of the musculoskeletal system, in the diagnosis of chest x-ray. ED is characterized by prolapse of the lower border of the lungs, high standing of the diaphragm, compression of the heart and mediastinum, and an increase in the volume of the chest cavity (barrel chest). The disease has no physiological or therapeutic basis. The name is given to distinguish this sign from the physiological diaphysical "rise" or the physiological female "diaphragm rise", which does not mean that anatomy is the focus of the pathology. This distinguishes the etiology and pathogenesis of ED neurosis from the organic event of the diaphragm. Neurotic syndromes are also observed due to diseases of the nervous system and other psychogenic factors. ED syndromes can be observed with organic eventrants T2 and T3 of the diaphragm
