Respiratory Physiotherapy in Mechanical Ventilation

Overview

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of respiratory physiotherapy that is breathing exercise during weaning on ventilated patients in ICU.

Respiratory physiotherapy is a treatment approach to increase ventilation and function in patients with acute and chronic problems and to reduce respiratory work and dyspnea.Airway cleaning techniques, lung volume-enhancing approaches, thoracic mobilization, positioning, breathing exercises and inhalation therapy are among the strategies used. In patients with invasive MV support, respiratory physiotherapy is the position, tracheal cleaning and inhalation therapy when necessary. But breathing exercises are not indicated in the acute phase. In the process of weaning, inspiratory muscle training and breathing exercises can be used.
