The Effect of Incentive Spirometer Verses Conventional Chest Physiotherapy on Pulmonary Complications in Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Patients.

The purpose of this study was to identify the post pulmonary complication faced by the coronary artery bypass grafting patients. So that the most effective treatment is reviewed and selection of incentive spirometer exercise, conventional chest physiotherapy with early mobilization is chosen as the line of treatment. It may improve health status by improving the functional capacities and there by enhance the aerobic performance of an individual. The value of chest physiotherapy has recently been established and accepted but it is still unclear which treatment techniques are most effective. Early mobilization and breathing exercises are often the first choice of treatment, but evidence as to the optimal intensity, timing and choice of exercises is scarce. There are only limited published literatures on how the cardiac surgery patient should be exercised with incentive spirometer and mobilizes during the first postoperative period in hospital.
