Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of diaphragmatic paralysis is unknown, but incidence of diaphragmatic paralysis after cardiac surgery is approximately 30000 to 75000 per 100,000 individuals.[1]
Prevalence
The prevalence of diaphragmatic paralysis is unknown, but prevalence of diaphragmatic paralysis after cardiac surgery is 1600 per 100,000 in children. [2]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- The morbidity and mortality of the unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis is related to underlying pulmonary function and etiology.[3]
- Most of the unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis are asymptomatic and are discovered incidentally during imaging and mortality rate are low.
- Most of the bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis are symptomatic and may develop ventilatory failure.
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop diaphragmatic paralysis.
Race
- There is no racial predilection to diaphragmatic paralysis
Gender
- Men are more commonly affected by diaphragmatic paralysis than women.[4]
