Abstract

Advances in technology, such as the use of nearinfrared spectroscopy to measure local respiratory muscle blood flow,(1) make it possible to investigate whether alterations in respiratory muscle perfusion during exercise contribute to the development of respiratory muscle fatigue and to associated increases in dyspnea perception in patients with COPD.
