Abstract:
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to find the effectiveness of Lung Flute versus Pilates breathing exercises to improve symptom and quality of life in subject with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease Methods: prospective study design. In this study, there were 90 subjects with an average age of over 20 years, a clinical diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and who were divided into two groups at randomly. The subjects in Group A (n = 45) received rhythmic stabilization exercise, while the subjects in Group B (n = 45) received motor control exercises. Intervention was given to participants twice a day ,5 session per week for six weeks. The CCQ questionnaire for symptoms and the SGRQ questionnaire for quality of life and mMRC for dyspnea and inch tape for chest expansion were used to assess the intervention’s effectiveness. Results: Independent ‘t’ test was used to compare the mean significance difference between continuous variables. Paired ‘t’ test was used to assess the statistical significance difference between pre and post test scores. Statistical analysis of this data revealed that, both groups significantly improved in both parameters when compared within groups, but when compared between groups, the Lung Flute improved better than the Pilates breathing exercises group. Conclusion: The present study concluded that both Lung Flute and Pilates breathing exercises were effective in improving symptoms and quality of life. However, Lung Flute was more effective when compared to Pilates breathing exercise in terms of improving symptoms and quality of life.
