Summary

the goal of this clinical trial is to compare between to important physiotherapy modalities applied on mechanically ventilated COPD patients the the main question the study aim to answer is which one of the two modalities has the better effect on mechanically ventilated patients with COPD

patients will get manual hyperinflation technique and PNF technique \\

researchers will compare MHI with PNF and will take a control group also

Conditions

  • COPD Exacerbation Acute

Interventions

DEVICE

manual hyperinflation

Each participant will assume a relaxed comfortable in supine position. Bag valve resuscitation circuit locked at pressure 35 cm H20 will be used. Six sets of six MHI breaths will be applied. MHI breaths had a slow inspiration for three seconds duration, a three second end inspiratory pause (hold) then an uninterrupted expiration as a quick release

OTHER

Diaphragmatic proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique

Rhythmic initiation technique that is derived from the PNF concept will be initiated by four 20-second manual diaphragm stimulations. After every stimulation the patient rested for one minute. Therapist's hands will be placed below the rib cage, just below the costal arches and will support patient's exhalation phase by slight lengthening his diaphragm simultaneously in posterior-superior direction using a verbal cue "exhale". At the same time, the patient will verbally be encouraged to take a deep breath

OTHER

traditional physiotherapy

This group will receive the traditional medical treatment and chest physiotherapy only.
