Abstract
AIM: The Aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of Buteyko Breathing Technique Versus Incentive spirometry on reducing postoperative pulmonary complications after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft which will cause reduction in hospital stay and overall cost of CABG. MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY: A Quasi Experimental study design consisting of reviews of charts of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft patients. Thirty patients were included, (60%) were males,(40%) were females ; the average age was 50 years. All the patients are presented with post operative Coronary Artery bypass Graft. Pre- and Post-Treatment scores of Breath hold are assessed to know their breathing capacity by Control Pause Test (CP). RESULTS: The pre and post test values were assessed by breathe holding in Group A and Group B. The mean difference value is 19 and 9 respectively. The standard deviation value is 1.09 and 0.96 respectively. The paired "t" test value for breathe holding is 55.41 and 31.37.The paired "t" test value is more than table value 2.15 for 5% level of significance at 14 degrees of freedom. The calculated "t" values by unpaired "t" test were 13.51. The calculated "t" values were more than the table value 2.05 for 5% level of significance at 28 degrees of freedom. CONCLUSION: The paired "t" test values have shown that BBT and IS technique has a better effect than the IS and thereby on reducing PPCs after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft which will cause reduction in hospital stay and overall cost of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft. The unpaired "t" test values have shown that there was significant difference between two groups in showing improvement on reducing post operative pulmonary complications after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft which will cause reduction in hospital stay and overall cost of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft.
