Preface

The diaphragm is the main respiratory muscle. Nevertheless, we can affirm that it has been the least monitored aspect of respiration in medical history, due to the lack of available tools and technologies to assess its function.
With the spreading use of ultrasound and the implementation of POCUS (Point of Care Ultrasound), some clinicians started to understand that a new “window” of opportunity was available to obtain information about the respiratory workload of our patients. Ultrasound of the diaphragm is the last piece of a puzzle that allows clinicians to assess the respiratory condition and to obtain valuable data of the patients with a quick, non-invasive, yet accurate tool.
To our knowledge, this is the first book entirely dedicated to the subject. e book is structured in four sections: a first part dedicated to the basics of anatomy, physiology, and ultrasound; a second part describing the technique, featuring illustrations and videoclips; and third and fourth parts dedicated to applications and new insights, respectively. Chapters are written by leading experts in the field from different countries, including Italy, the Netherlands, France, Brazil, Greece, and Canada. Given the relatively recent “discovery” of diaphragm ultrasound, this choice has allowed us to approach the subject from different points of view to provide a comprehensive perspective. My deep gratitude goes to every author of each chapter; without their contribution the goal would have been impossible to achieve.

Editor

Dr Massimo Zambon is a skilled anesthesiologist and critical care specialist, Head of the Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care of the Uboldo Hospital in Cernusco sul Naviglio, Milan. Graduated in medicine at the University of Trieste before settling in Italy, he gained professional experience working in some of the major European hospitals both as researcher (research fellow at Erasme Hospital in Brussels, Belgium, 2005–06) and clinician (anesthesiologist and critical care specialist at La Pitié-Salpétrière Hospital in Paris, France, 2007–08). Subsequently, he became full-time staff physician at San Raffaele Hospital in Milan, Italy (2009–15), where he was involved in training activities for internal staff, residents, and students of the San Raffaele University. He has wide-ranging expertise in intensive care medicine, mainly focusing on the application of ultrasound in critically ill patients. In the last decade, he has started to perform ultrasound of the diaphragm on critically ill patients, an innovative and non-invasive tool that facilitates assess to respiratory muscle function. He has published more than 20 papers in critical care indexed journals, mostly focused on ultrasound, and a number of abstracts and book chapters.

Anatomy, Physiology, and Dysfunction of the Diaphragm

In evolution, the diaphragm muscle is unique to mammals, and its physiological
importance cannot be argued (1).

Anatomy

e diaphragm is a dome-shaped 2–4 mm thick muscular sheet that separates the thoracic and the abdominal cavities (2–5) (Figure 1.1).
Actually, the diaphragm is formed by two muscle bellies (domes or cupolae) connected at the level of the xiphosternal joint by the central tendon. is flat non-contractile collagen aponeurosis provides support to the heart, whereas the right and the le cupolae support the corresponding lungs. e apex of the diaphragm ranges widely in height during the breathing cycle (even between the fourth rib and the costal margin) depending on breathing depth, body posture, and abdominal pressure. e right cupola, lying above the liver, reaches a 2–3 cm higher level than the le one.
e diaphragm muscle fibres arise from the inner aspect of the thoracic cage (4–9).
Posteriorly, the diaphragm muscle fibres are organized in two paired crura, which originate from the anterior aspects of L1–L3 and are joined by the median arcuate ligament. Hypertrophy or lower displacement of this fibrous structure may cause the median arcuate
ligament syndrome (MALS, also known as celiac artery compression syndrome, celiac axis syndrome, celiac trunk compression syndrome, or Dunbar syndrome).
More anteriorly, the diaphragm muscle fibres rise from the paired medial arcuate ligaments, which join the vertebral tendinous origin of the respective diaphragmatic crus
to the transverse processes of L1 or L2, aer covering the anterior surface of the major psoas muscle. Even more anteriorly, the muscle fibres take origin from the paired lateral arcuate ligaments, which spread from the transverse processes of T12–L3 (variably) to the mid portion of the twelh ribs covering the quadratus lumborum muscle.
