Effectiveness of Breathing exerciseamong COPD patients An quasi experimental Study | |
Author Name Mr. Javed Ansari, Assistant Professor, Govt College of Nursing ,Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh Abstract One of the key symptoms of COPD is airway obstruction, which is characterised by decreased overall airflow. When peripheral airways are blocked, it might cause the lungs to retain a volume of air, which can be dangerous (i.e., hyperinflation). An increase in the respiratory rate may be brought on by inspiration, which takes place before the lungs have been completely emptied of air. Rapid, shallow breathing may lead to exhaustion in the respiratory muscles if it is done for an extended period of time. If hyperinflation takes place, the dome of the diaphragm will become flatter, the muscle fibres that control breathing will get shorter, and the capacity to contract will be hindered. Because of this, there is a possibility that the transmission of gas will not be very efficient. People who suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) often experience breathlessness or dyspnoea. Published On : 2022-12-23 Article Download : |
