Physiological Assessments During Non Operative Treatment on the Chest Wall Deformities

Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne

Summary

The physiological assessment in non-operative treatment on chest wall deformities, are still unclear today. These functional benefits outweigh the aesthetic benefits associated with anatomical improvement. The functional benefits, ventilation, hemodynamic and neurologic, have never been evaluated. Assessment of Effects on parasympathetic activity of the autonomic nervous system, global health criterion measured by noninvasive methods. Anatomic evaluation, between the initial and final assessment by objective measures 1) of the chest wall by MRI, and 2) of the heart by echocardiography. Noninvasive physiological assessment at rest and during exercise in respiratory function exploration flows and volumes, cardiac function by flow measurement, and overall metabolic function test effort (VO2max). Subjective assessment of functional gain between the initial and final balance sheet, based on EVA scales, valued by patients, parents and doctors.
