Summary

The aim of the study is to determine the importance and impact of resistive breathing techniques versus inspiratory hold techniques in patients with chronic bronchitis and specially to find out if there are any changes seen in results measured via the incentive spirometer.

Conditions

  • Chronic Bronchitis

Interventions

OTHER

Resistive Breathing Training group

The patients performed two sessions each of 15 minutes session of resistive breathing for four days a week for six weeks using an inspiratory resistive device. Ask patient to take long slow inspirations while breathing through the resistive device

OTHER

inspiratory hold technique

With the patient in a comfortable position such as side lying or reclined, the therapist may assist the patient by placing both hands on abdominal area to provide proprioceptive feedback.
