abductors |\on |\the |\uninvolved |\side. |- |\CORRECT |\ANSWERS |
✔✔1.uninvolved |\side |\to |\lessen |\the |\muscle |\force |\required |\of |\the |
abductors |\on |\the |\involved |\side.
Use |\of |\a |\cane |\on |\the |\uninvolved |\side |\will |\help |\to |\decrease |\the |

volume |\and |\decreased |\vital |\capacity
Restrictive |\lung |\diseases |\are |\a |\group |\of |\diseases |\that |\result |\in |
difficulty |\expanding |\the |\lungs |\and |\a |\reduction |\in |\lung |\volumes. |
Pulmonary |\function |\tests |\reveal |\a |\reduction |\in |\vital |\capacity, |
functional |\residual |\capacity, |\reserve |\volume, |\and |\total |\lung |\capacity Both |\total |\lung |\capacity |\and |\vital |\capacity |\are |\decreased |\in |\patients |\who |\have |\restrictive |\lung |\diseases. All |\measures |\decrease |\with |\restrictive |\except |\for |\Forced |\expiratory |
