چکیده
Respiratory dysfunction is a major source of morbidity and mortality in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) and an abdominal binder improves efficiency of the diaphragm and inturn has an effect on respiratory function. To find out the effect on Pulmonary Function with Abdominal Compression Binder in Adult Paraplegics. Method: 20 Paraplegic was selected, informed consent was taken. In sitting position spirometry was performed. FVC, FEV1/FVC and PEFR were recorded without the abdominal binder. The Abdominal binder was applied and a Pressure biofeedback machine was placed between the binder and fastened to the pressure level of 20 mm Hg. The FVC, FEV1/FVC and PEF values in this position were recorded and subjected for analysis. Paired t test was used, FVC (p= 0.551), FEV1/FVC (p=0.156), PEFR (p=0.339) values are statistically not significant. Abdominal Compression Binder has no effect on pulmonary function in Adult paraplegics.
