Summary

Sixty patients with 25-45 years of age presenting post burn inhalation injury, randomly distributed into two equal groups, 30 patients for each group. control group receive conventional chest physiotherapy (diaphragmatic respiratory exercises, apical breathing exercises) for (15-20) minutes 3times/week and medical treatment for 4 weeks as a total period of treatment. study group will receive pilates exercise in addition to their conventional chest physiotherapy for (15-20) minutes 3times/week and medical treatment for 4 weeks as a total period of treatment, computerized spirometer assessment before treatment are ( The following variables were measured: forced vital capacity (PVC%) and forced ·expiratory volume in one second (FEVl %) and peak expiratory flow (PEF %)and after one month

Conditions

  • Inhalation Injury

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Conventional chest physical therapy

Conventional chest physical therapy: The patients performed four series of five breath with 3 seconds of sustained breathing interspersed with periods of quite breathing followed by two or three coughs or huffs (with wound support by a pillow or his/her hands), twice a day in the first two postburned days and once a day from the third to the tenth days.

BEHAVIORAL

Pilates exercise

The Pilates technique, which stretched laterally and to the back, stressed costal breathing, in which the ribs climb and drop throughout the ventilatory stream. The transverse muscle had to work harder to avoid abdominal distension, provide more support to the diaphragm to promote lower rib movement, and provide more diaphragmatic excursion, During the expiratory phase, the transversus abdominis, the multifidus and the pelvic floor musculature were contracted.
