Summary

the study aims to investigate effectiveness of thoracic cage mobilizations on the chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

conventional treatment

the patient will be asked to make pursed lip breathing (Breathe in for 2 seconds through his nose and Breathe out for 4 seconds through pursed lips)for 5-10 min ,3-4 times , 8-10 rep each cycle then asked to make diaphragmatic breathing exercise (Lie on his/her back and Inhale deeply through his/her nose for a count of three)for 5-10 min , 3-4 times , 8-10 repetition then postural drainage , furthermore the patient takes different position (prone to make percussion on lower lobes, side lying on anterior basal segment then sitting position on the upper lobe). After that a vibration on the chest (place a flat hand firmly atop the lung segment to be drained., and should apply light pressure and create a rapid, shaking movement) 1 min inhale and 5 time of repetition at the exhale and finally asked the patient to make productive cough for 5 times to get out the sputum.

OTHER

thoracic mobilization

we will use A SNAG to mobilization using type 3 oscillatory and sustain for 90 second, at first put the patient in 3 position (side lying to make mobilization of upper 6 ribs in downward direction then make on lower 6 ribs ,furthermore flexion of the thoracic and next rotation toward the midline then ask the patient to transfer to supine lying position and mobilize the sternum in downward direction the next mobilize the clavicle and ask the patient to take sitting position and put his hand on his head in adduction position and make extension on the thoracic vertebrae with inward mobilize with the investigator knees ,take each 4 vertebrae along the 12 thoracic vertebrae.
