Tidal volume and ventilator-free time increased after diaphragm conditioning with pacing. After 1 month of conditioning, modest gains in tidal volume (A) were detected, but the effect was variable among patients. Ventilator-free time (B) progressively increased in the first 3 months of diaphragm conditioning, which is consistent with published reports of pacing in spinal cord injury. Graphs depict median and range.
