Summary

This study intends to examine the effectiveness of adding RMS to a traditional program of pulmonary rehabilitation regarding chest expansion, dyspnea, and cough symptoms in bronchiectasis post-tuberculosis patients. Bronchiectasis, resulting from tuberculosis treatment, is characterized by restricted chest wall motility, chronic dyspnea, and an irritating cough, factors that severely impair these patients' quality of life. It is assumed that RMS improves the compliance of the chest wall, thereby enhancing respiratory mechanics and consequently reducing symptoms. The outcomes will be compared between two groups: one group with standard pulmonary rehabilitation and another group with additional RMS exercises.
