Brief Summary:
This study will be conducted to compare between the effect of glossopharyngeal and diaphragmatic breathing exercises on pulmonary functions after decortication surgery
Detailed Description:
Lung decortication is a well-known procedure for the treatment of empyema. Persistent lung collapse and non-expansion of the lung parenchyma are frequently noticed in the postoperative period after decortications, chest physiotherapy plays a crucial role in the re-expansion of underlying parenchyma.
There is an increased flow of patients after decortication surgery to hospitals who suffer from decreased lung volumes so the hospitalization period for them increases which puts an economical burden on health insurance services with a decreased level of quality of life that is the most concern to improve patient status and relieve this burden. So this study aims to improve patient's lung volumes and arterial blood gas parameters which improves patient status through two various forms of breathing exercises.
