Summary

A current complication after lung transplantation is diaphragmatic dysfunction.

The incidence of diaphragmatic paralysis in post-operative lung transplantation varies from 3.2% to 16.8%. The main hypothesis of the study is to defined the incidence of diaphragmatic dysfunction in post-operative lung transplantation.
