ABSTRACT
The study was experimental which was comparative in nature. The current study aims to evaluate the comparison of effect of segmental breathing exercise and deep breathing exercise in CABG patients.
On the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria 30 subjects were taken. Before initiating the study a consent was taken from the patient which include the aim and objectives of the study. Subjects were divided into 2 groups. Each group contain 15 subjects. Subjects were divided randomly into each group. Pre-operative segmental breathing exercise were taught by therapist to group A along with conventional exercises and deep breathing exercise were taught by therapist to group B along with conventional exercises and then pre operative readings were taken. Conventional exercises include upper limb range of motion exercises, lower limb range of motion exercises and ambulation if necessary. Post operatively patients were asked to perform the exercises under observation by the therapist. Now, post operative readings for both the groups were taken 30 days of time period.
Data was meaningfully assorted through calculation of Mean and Standard Deviation. Thereafter Unpaired âtâ test was applied for comparison of results of Incentive Spirometer and PEFR performed on group A and group B. The level of significance (P value) for Incentive Spirometer is 0.5434 and 0.6436. The level of significance (P value) for PEFR is 0.7187 and 0.7356. There was no significant difference in comparison of effect of segmental breathing exercise and deep breathing exercise in CABG patients.
The study concludes that there is no significant difference in Comparison of Effect of Segmental Breathing Exercise and Deep Breathing Exercise in CABG Patients.
Key words: Segmental Breathing Exercise; Deep Breathing Exercise; Incentive Spirometer; PEFR; CABG.
