INCENTIVE SPIROMETRY AND DEEP BREATHING EXERCISE PREFER TO PREVENT DECREASED OF LUNG VITAL CAPASITY AS GOOD AS DEEP BREATHING EXERCISE POST CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFT PHASE I

Effects of Deep Breathing Exercises after Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Chest physiotherapy after coronary artery bypass graft surgery--a comparison of three different deep breathing techniques.

The effectiveness of three deep breathing techniques was evaluated in 98 male patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery in a randomized trial. The techniques examined were deep breathing with a blow bottle-device, an inspiratory resistance-positive expiratory pressure mask (IR-PEP) and performed with no mechanical device. Pulmonary function and roentgenological changes were evaluated....

Buteyko Breathing Technique Versus Incentive Spirometer on Breath Holding Time after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft

Background: Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is still associated with frequent development of postoperative pulmonary complications, which are particularly concerning given its link to increased patient morbidity and mortality and resource utilization. Aim of the Work: The aim of this study was to compare between the effects of two inpatient respiratory retraining techniques post coronary ar...

Comparison between deep breathing exercises and incentive spirometry after CABG surgery.

OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of deep breathing exercises (DBE) and the flow-oriented incentive spirometry (IS) in patients undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) through the following variables: forced vital capacity - FVC, forced expiratory volume in 1 second - FEV(1), maximal respiratory pressures and oxygen saturation. METHODS Thirty six patients in CABG postoperative period ...

Deep-breathing exercises reduce atelectasis and improve pulmonary function after coronary artery bypass surgery.

STUDY OBJECTIVES To investigate the effects of deep-breathing exercises on pulmonary function, atelectasis, and arterial blood gas levels after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS In a prospective, randomized trial, patients performing deep-breathing exercises (n = 48) were compared to a control group (n = 42) who performed no breathing exercises postope...
