After 13 years I emptied my desk at KU Leuven PhysioTher. I am very greatful for all colleagues and friends I have met during these years. Special thanks to Thierry Troosters and Wim Janssens, my supervisors, for all support and opportunities I received! Looking forward to the future Vakgroep Revalidatiewetenschappen UGent!

Although the Fitbit shows moderate to good agreement, measures of clinical parameters deviated from the reference devices. Monitoring patients and interpreting parameters using wearables requires caution, as shown by Fien Hermans.

Respiratory muscle dysfunction can be both a cause & consequence of respiratory failure, but it's often reversible! 🌬️ This new review explores diagnostic tools & treatment strategies to support these vital muscles. More: ap.lc/mPVup Marine Van Hollebeke Diego Poddighe
