Brief Summary:
Chronic pulmonary obstructive disease refers to a group of lungs problems that includes blockage of airway and difficulty in breathing. It includes mostly emphysema, asthma and chronic bronchitis. Chronic pulmonary obstructive disease is the third main cause of death in the whole world .The diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease can be made by spirometer and the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 second over forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) should be less than 70%. It shows severity of airway obstruction .First technique is Chest physiotherapy, in which slow and gentle cupped hand slaps are given on effected lobe of lungs while second technique is lungs squeezing technique, in which 3-4 chest compressions are applied on the chest wall.
The study design of this study will be randomized clinical trial. In this study non probability convenience sampling technique will be used to collect the data. Data management and analysis will be done by using SPSS 25. This randomized clinical trial will include 48 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Their ages will be ranged from 40 to 60 years old male with the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease diagnosed with GOLD guidelines stage II moderate to severe .The participants will be randomly allocated into two equal groups, the Group I will receive Chest physiotherapy, while the Group II will receive lungs squeezing technique for 20 minutes duration per session, three sessions per week, for a period of 4 weeks. The status of airway clearance, oxygen saturation and lungs volumes will be measured pre and post intervention in each training session.
