Abstract

NEED FOR THE STUDY: The understanding of the differences between ACBT & DBE will help to the physiotherapy to prescribe the correct breathing technique & prevent pulmonary complication in post operative patients. AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of the study is to analyze the beneficial effects of diaphragmetic breathing exercise and active cycle breathing technique in prevention of post operative pulmonary complication in pulmonary surgery. HYPOTHESIS: Both ACBT & DBE in prevention of pulmonary complication in pulmonary surgery. ACBT is more effective than DBE. NULL HYPOTHESIS: There is no significant difference between ACBT & DBE in prevention of pulmonary complication in post pulmonary surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY: STUDY SETTING: The study is conducted in Meenakshi Mission Hospital, Madurai-20. STUDY SAMPLE: 20 individuals who underwent pulmonary surgery, aged between 30-50 years are going to be selected based on the randomly selection criteria for the study. DESIGN OF THE STUDY: The study is an experimental design involving the effective analysis of two groups were randomly selected in pulmonary surgery. Group I – ACBT, Group II – DBE. DURATION OF THE STUDY: The Study is carried out for period of Six Months. INCLUSION CRITERIA: 1. patients who will undergo pulmonary surgery, 2. Patients without any other systemic and cardiac conditions preoperatively, 3. Age group from 30 to 50 years, 4. Both Males & females, 5. Patient stable, Co-Operative. EXCLUSION CRITERIA: 1. Acute Rib fracture, 2. Chest and spinal deformities, 3. Age less than 30 and more than 50, 4. Patients with other systemic and cardiac conditions preoperatively, 5. Patients with neurological disorder. RESULTS: Respiratory Rate: The means & SD of the two groups A & B have been shown in table. Group A (ACBT) showed a significance of 5% [9.12] & Group B (DBE) showed a significance of 5% [8.52]. In the comparison between the two groups a significance of 5% [4.86] was achieved. The results suggest that there is a significant decrease in respiratory rate in pulmonary surgery in post operative patients after the giving ACBT & DBE. ACBT is more effective than DBE. Peak Expiratory Flow Rate: The means & SD of the two groups A & B have been shown in table. Group A [ACBT] showed a significance of 5% [38.48] & Group B (DBE) showed a significance of 5% [35.41]. In the comparison between the two groups a significance of 5% [11.62] was achieved. The results suggest that there is a significant Increase in Peak Expiratory Flow Rate in Pulmonary Surgery in Post operative patients after the giving ACBT & DBE But ACBT is more than DBE. CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicates greater effectiveness in ACBT, less effectiveness in DBE in acutely clearing secretions, prevent the pulmonary complications & increase PEF Rate & also decrease respiratory rate, post operative in patients with pulmonary surgery. These techniques can be used in post operative patients in pulmonary surgery and the physiotherapist’s preferences.
