Dr Caroline Jolley, of King's College London, discusses the role of respiratory muscle function in the perception of breathing effort, focusing in particular upon patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A neurophysiological model of breathlessness is presented in which disordered lung mechanics and diaphragm weakness, lead to an uncoupling of inspiratory pressure generation and ventilation to create a state of "neuromechanical dissociation" and efferent-afferent mismatch. Finally, Dr Jolley consideres whether inspiratory muscle training might ameliorate this mismatch. The lecture was filmed at Brunel University - London in April 2013 as part of a series of lectures on respiratory muscle training in health and disease.

Hi Blakey

Some interesting bits, I think it makes the point about breathing technique affecting how breathless we feel, tho much of a bit too technical for me

This is another youtube piece that I discovered a while back, quite long but it did tell me stuff I didn't know

Hi Izzy, yes there are lots of information videos, I saw the pathophysiology of copd too
