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.
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
Since ARDS is a major complication of COVID - 19 with subsequent formation of non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema , worsening the oxygenation of the patients and foamy and even bloody sputum formation, so the idea is to use alcohol inhalation as it reduce surface tension on the alveoli and markedly decrease sputum formation with improvement on oxygenation beside its cytolethal effect on virus lipid bilayer. A lot of researches and publications proved the role of alcohol inhalation in treatment of pulmonary edema. Alcohol inhalation may has inflammatory effect and dangerous effect on patients but this can be controlled by the actual concentration used and the way we use it according to general condition of the patient and with the help of anti - inflammatory action of Asprin .
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.
ioequivalence study between two inhaler products of fixed dose combination of fluticasone propionate and salmeterol xinafoate inhalation powder
The SIESTA-Rehabilitation protocol combines two sleep-promoting interventions, (1) empowering nurses to reduce unnecessary disruptions and (2) a systematic protocol to screen, diagnose, and treat sleep-disordered breathing, to determine its impact on relevant sleep and rehabilitation outcomes in the acute inpatient stroke rehabilitation setting compared to the standard of care. Our primary outcome is change in Quality Indicator (QI) score, a measure that has replaced the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) in the inpatient setting at the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, between admission and discharge.
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.
Spontaneous Breathing (SB) can be potentially harmful in patient with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) during the transition phase of passive ventilation to partial ventilatory support. The application of high Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) during SB has shown to ameliorate the progression of lung injury by decreasing the TP and esophageal pressure (EP) swings and the stress / strain applied to the lung. The mechanisms proposed to be responsible for these effects are the activation of Hering Breuer reflex, the recruitment of previously collapsed tissue, the homogenization of lung and the improvement of respiratory system compliance and the impairment in the length - tension relationship of the diaphragm. If all the previously explained mechanisms have an effect on the control of inspiratory effort, a decrease in the intensity of effort is expected during an end-inspiratory occlusion in patients who will respond to high PEEP application. Based on this rationale, the investigators developed an index called "Inspiratory Ratio" (IR) to predict the response of patient's inspiratory effort to the application of high PEEP without need of esophageal manometry.
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.
Respiratory muscle weakness is common after mechanical ventilation and occurs early. This can limit functional recovery. Respiratory muscle training is often neglected in clinical practice. Some data indicates that inspiratory muscle training increases inspiratory muscle strength and quality of life. The aim of the study is to assess the impact of combined inspiratory and expiratory muscle training on inspiratory muscle strength. The second aim is to assess the impact of this training program on expiratory muscle strength.
