Filter by:Rehabilitation strategies after abdominal surgery enhance recovery and improve outcome. A cornerstone of rehabilitation is respiratory physiotherapy with inspiratory muscle training to enhance pulmonary function. Prehabilitation is the process of enhancing functional capacity before surgery in order to compensate for the stress of surgery and postoperative recovery. There is growing interest in deploying pre-habilitation interventions prior to surgery. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of preoperative inspiratory muscle training on postoperative overall morbidity. The question is, whether inspiratory muscle training prior to elective abdominal surgery reduces the number of postoperative complications and their severity grade.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial study was to assess the effects of an 4-week exercise program on the recovery capacity after a voluntary maximal apnea. Participants will be randomly allocated to perform an experimental breathing protocol (NR-HB), or an usual training using their usual breathing (UB) protocol.
A clinical trial will be carried out in the area of physiotherapy and rehabilitation of the "Centro Integral de Rehabilitación S.C. at the Hospital Angeles Lomas" in Mexico. Which, will have 3 arms (1. New intervention protocol created by the main author in the use of the inspirometer, 2. Conventional use of the inspirometer, 3. breathing exercises without the use of inspirometer) with hospitalized patient population and whose purpose will be to determine the effectiveness of the new intervention protocol and compare it with the current protocol and respiratory exercises.
Background: After total knee replacement (TKR) surgery, patients often experience intense levels of pain, stress, and anxiety that can adversely affect postoperative recovery. Diaphragmatic breathing exercise (DBE) may help patients manage pain and emotional distress. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of DBE on pain, anxiety, and depression in patients undergoing TKR. Methods: The study population consisted of patients who underwent TKR surgery in the orthopedic ward of Çankırı State Hospital between May and August 2019. The study sample included a total of 38 patients satisfying the inclusion criteria. Stratified randomization was used to assign the patients into sex-matched intervention group (n=19) and control group (n=19). Patients in the intervention group were also trained in the DBE procedure. Pain scores were evaluated at 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hours postoperatively, while the anxiety and depression was applied on the postoperative day 2. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, and Mann-Whitney U test.
This study evaluates the effects of a nasal restriction device for inspiratory muscle training (FeelBreathe) after 8 weeks of exercise intervention on exercise capacity, quality of life, dyspnea and inspitarotory muscle strength in patients with stable COPD. Participants were divided in three groups: 1) exercise intervention using the Feelbreathe® device (FB group), 2) exercise intervention with oronasal breathing without FB (ONB group) and 3) no participation in the exercise intervention as control group (CG).
Since osteopathy it is considered that the alterations in the mobility of the different structures of the organism could cause a decrease in the blood circulation of the tissue causing a functional disorder and, with time, the appearance of a disease. In visceral osteopathy, the treatment of liver dysfunctions it is important due to their interrelation with the functioning of the rest of the abdominal and pelvic viscera and, especially, through the hepatic portal system. However, there are few studies showing whether a manual therapeutic intervention can affect the mobility, function or vascularization of a viscera. Ultrasonography is an appropriate tool for validating some of these intervention procedures given their safety, repeatability, autonomy and the low cost of the procedures and technical equipment which, in a non-invasive manner, will allow the effects of the different therapeutic interventions to be verified. Hypothesis: 1. Vertebral manipulations and pumping of the liver improve the flow of the portal vein in front of the diaphragmatic breathing and the contraction of the psoas iliac muscle. 2. The accuracy of ultrasound to assess venous flow may be useful as an outcome measure. Objectives: To describe the immediate changes of different manipulative interventions on portal vein flow in healthy women and to obtain baseline measurements for future research. Sample description: Pilot randomized controlled clinical trial with a sample of 50 healthy adult women recruited intentionally sampled that will be pseudo-randomly forcing equality of groups: control, chest manipulation, liver manipulation, abdominal breathing and iliac psoas muscle contraction. The minimum size required has been calculated using the program G*Power 3.1.3 for Windows (University Kiel, Germany, 2008) based on an effect size of 0.5, type I error of 5%,type II error of 10% and an effect size of f=0.45.
Breathing exercises to improve fatigue and quality of life in hemodialysis patients
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the use of subcutaneous impedance measured with an implanted Medtronic Reveal LINQ™ insertable cardiac monitor (ICM) as respiratory rate monitor.
This study has the aim to assess the effectiveness of the Buteyko method as an adjunct therapy in the treatment of children with asthma.
