- Brief Summary
COPD is the chronic lung condition characterized by the damage and enlargement of the air sacs in the lungs, leading to breathing difficulties. A blockage may develop, which traps air inside your lungs. The patient shows clinical manifestation of cough, wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath. This research of randomized clinical trial will check the combined effects of pursed lip breathing and coordinated breathing techniques to improve aerobic capacity and dyspnea in patients with COPD by taking sample of 54 patients through convenience sampling and randomly allocating them to two groups A and B out of which A will receive pursed lip breathing with aerobic exercise for 4 times per week for 4 week and duration will be 45-60 min, B will receive coordinated breathing with aerobic exercise for 4 times per week for 4 weeks. And duration will be 45-60 min.Pre and post training outcomes of aerobic capacity and dyspnea will be measured through Six minute walk test and dyspnea Borg scale, and Saint George respiratory questionnaire. The data will be analyzed through SPSS 21.

Relax your neck and shoulder muscles. For the use of PLB exercise, the intervention will be given every day till the patient discharged from hospital. Patient will perform 5 sets
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Six minute walk test baseline and fourth week Patients were instructed to walk back and forth at their own pace in a 35 m corridor. A physiotherapist supervised the test through the course, telling the patient the remaining exercise time every 2 min
Borg dyspnea scale baseline and fourth week Dyspnea during the test was evaluated with the modified Borg dyspnea score. Pulmonary function test, inspiratory capacity, and dyspnea score, together with the walking distance were recorded before and after walking. Modified Borg scale is valid patient self-report scale for measuring breathlessness after exercise with the scaling from 0 to 10.
