| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Semi-Structured Interviews. | The interviews will serve a dual purpose: first, to delve into the daily experiences of individuals living with diaphragmatic paralysis, aiming to uncover the practical and emotional realities they face; and second, to explore the experiences and perceived outcomes of phrenic nerve surgery as a treatment for diaphragmatic paralysis. | Participants are interviewed one week before and 12 months after the surgery. |
