Filter by:the study aimed to compare the effect of using NIV with using CPAP mask and stacked breathing exercise and its efficacy on chest expansion and pulmonary functions in pneumonic patients.
Hypertensive urgency (HT urgency) is an alarm sign of uncontrolled hypertension. It can be aggravated by nonadherent to medication and psychosocial stress. Mindfulness is beneficial for reducing stress, while deep and slow breathing is effective for blood pressure (BP) lowering. The objective of the study was to assess the effect of pursed-lip breathing with number counting (PLB with NC) that promotes mindfulness and a deep/slow breathing pattern on BP and heart rate (HR) in the HT urgency patients.

To determine effectiveness of breathing exercises for pregnant women during the second stage of labor on maternal pain, duration of labor, dyspnea, oxygen saturation (SPO2) and the first-minute Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity and Respiration (APGAR) scores
The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of breathing exercises combined with core stabilization exercises in mothers with chronic non-specific low back pain of children with special health care needs.

The benefits of inspiratory muscle training(IMT) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) were reported.But in severe COPD patients, benefit from IMT may be limited.There is need for further research in new and complementary modalities to improve IMT efficiency in severe COPD patients.Manual therapy(MT) additional over IMT may be such a new approach that has not yet been investigated in COPD. Aims: To investigate effects of MT additional over IMT on functional capacity,respiratory muscle strength,pulmonary function,dyspnea, fatigue and quality of life in severe COPD patients. Methods: It was a prospective single-blind randomized trial. 40 patients with COPD in Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease(GOLD) stage III-IV were included. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either MT additional over IMT at 40% of maximal inspiratory pressure(MIP)(n= 20) or only IMT(n= 20) for 12 weeks. MT group received MT during 12 weeks for 40 minutes additional to IMT. Pulmonary function using spirometry, respiratory muscle strength using mouth pressure device, functional capacity using six minute walk test, dyspnea using Modified Medical Research Council(MMRC) dyspnea scale, fatigue using fatigue severity scale and quality of life using St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire(SGRQ) were evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to develop a mindful breathing module to an already effective and developed home based rehabilitation program for guiding COPD patients in a mindful breathing practice and further palliate breathlessness and anxiety.
Rationale: This protocol describes a study on the local tolerability of dry powder hydroxychloroquine using the Cyclops in healthy volunteers. Objective: - Primary objective is to assess the local tolerability of dry powder hydroxychloroquine sulphate via the Cyclops at different dosages. - Secondary objective is to investigate systemic pharmacokinetic parameters of dry powder hydroxychloroquine sulphate via the Cyclops at different dosages. Study design: single center, ascending dose study Study population: twelve healthy volunteers Main study parameters/endpoints: The local tolerability of the inhalation of dry powder hydroxychloroquine sulphate (5, 10 and 20 mg) defined by a lung function deterioration (a drop of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) of >15%), cough, or any other reported adverse event. Pharmacokinetic parameters will be derived from calculated actual inhaled dose (dose minus remainder in inhaler after inhalation) and in blood samples drawn pre-dose, at 0.5 and 2 and 3.5 hrs after inhalation. The inspiratory parameters during the inhalation maneuver are critical to explore predictors for drug exposure. The following parameters will be measured/calculated: dPmax (maximum pressure drop), Vi (inhaled volume), Ti (total inhalation time), PIF (peak inspiratory flow rate), MIF (mean inspiratory flow rate) and the FIR (average flow increase rate between 20% and 80% of PIF). Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: The participants included are healthy volunteers. They will receive three different doses of hydroxychloroquine sulphate using the dry powder inhaler (DPI) with (at least) seven days in between doses. Before using the dry powder inhaler (DPI), they will receive instructions and their inspiratory flow will be tested. To investigate local tolerability, lung function tests will be performed, and the occurrence of adverse events will be scored. Furthermore, before each test dose an indwelling cannula will be inserted and blood samples will be taken before and after each test dose. Four blood samples will be collected with each inhaled dose. Finally, five ECGs will be obtained to monitor for QT prolongation, one at the screenings visit, one at base-line and one after each inhalation.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of inspiratory muscle training program in inspiratory muscle endurance, breathlessness, inspiratory muscle strength, functional capacity and quality of life in patients with interstitial lung disease. Patients are evaluated before the inspiratory muscle training and after 8 weeks of training.
