To Compare the Immediate Effect of Deep Breathing Exercise and Incentive Spirometry on Abg after Mitral Valve Replacement Surgery
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Purpose: To compare the Immediate effect of Deep Breathing Exercise and Incentive Spirometry on ABG after Mitral Valve Replacement surgery.
Methods : Thirty-two patients of elected MVR surgery with age group 20-40 years were included for the study. They were trained pre-operatively and assigned into two groups and performed either deep breathing exercise or incentive spirometry according to the group they assigned on second post-operative day.
Measurement: ABG variables; Pao2, Paco2 and Sao2 were measured on second post operative days before and after the interventions.
Results: Data analysis was performed using the software package SPSS 15.0.Independent paired test was performed to compare between the groups and paired test was used to compare all variables within group. Significant differences were found in Pao2 on second post operative days after breathing exercises. There was no significant value found in Incentive Spirometry group.
Conclusion: The result of the study suggested that deep breathing exercise could be of benefits in the treatment of post-operative oxygenation after mitral valve replacement surgery.
