Study Details

Study Description

Brief 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

Detailed Description

Two groups of sixty patients (thirty patients in each group) of both sexes of inhalation injury post burn are selected randomly to participate in the study.

The patients will be divided into two equal groups in number:
  • Group (A) study group: this group includes 30 patients who have postburn inhalation injury will receive conventional chest physiotherapy (diaphragmatic respiratory exercises, deep inhalation exercises, and respiratory exercises associated with shoulder flexion movements and extension of the upper limbs, assisted cough, circulatory exercises and early ambulation) and medical treatment and pilates method.

  • Group (B) control group: this group includes 30 patients who have postburn inhalation injury will receive conventional chest physiotherapy (diaphragmatic respiratory exercises, deep inhalation exercises, and respiratory exercises associated with shoulder flexion movements and extension of the upper limbs, assisted cough, circulatory exercises and early ambulation) and medical 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

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: control group

this group includes 30 patients who have post burn inhalation injury will receive 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

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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Measurement of Pulmonary Function (spirometry) [one month]

    Spirometric evaluation had been undertaken on pre-rehabilitation. The following variables were measured: forced vital capacity (PVC%) and forced ·expiratory volume in one second (FEVl %) and peak expiratory flow (PEF %), by spirometry (ZAN 100 Handy 11- TB 100 E006) with the subject upright sitting or lying in the supine posture

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Measurement of anthropometric parameters. [before spirometer test]

    Before spirometry testing, height and weight should be determined to find the body mass index essential in spirometry test. Standing height was measured in centimeters with· a measuring scale. Weight was measured in kilograms on a standardized weighing machine
