Overview
The majority of patients with unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis are asymptomatic. Exertional dyspnea and decreased exercise performance are common symtoms of unilateral diaphragmati paralysis. Less common symtoms of unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis include dyspnea at rest and orthopnea. Dyspnea in supine position and orthopnea are common symtoms of bilateral diphragmatic paralysis. Less common symtoms of bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis include daytime fatigue and confusion.
History and Symptoms
History
Unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis
Patients with unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis may have a positive history of:[1]

Bilateral diphragmatic paralysis
Patients with bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis may have a positive history of :
- Known neuromuscular disease
