Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- If left untreated, patients with unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis may recover fully or partially. Most of the bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis are symptomatic and may develop ventilatory failure. [1]
Complications
- Common complications of diaphragmatic paralysis include:
- Severe pulmonary dysfunction in bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis
Prognosis
- Prognosis is generally excellent in unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis.[2]
- Bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis is a medical emergency.
