- Brief Summary
A randomized controlled trial in which icing and airflow stimulation for reduction of dyspnea in patients of obstructive lung disease was done which is characterized as condition of infection described by constant improvement of perpetual constraint of flow of air that is partially reversible and incorporates chronic bronchitis, emphysema and small airway diseases . The tools used were RR, Spirometry, Saturation, Borg Scale, MRC scale, shuttle walk test and St George's Respiratory Questionnaire (St.GRQ) score. Pulse oximeter measured the saturation levels and respiratory rates were alse observed. Borg scale measured rate of perceived exertion ranges from 6(easy physical activity) and 20(worst activity) and MRC measure dyspnea levels. In St.GRQ score between 1 to 8 is symptoms related and 9 to 17 was activity related.Literature review indicate that icing and airflow stimulation reduce dyspnea in patients of obstructive lung diseases.
- Detailed Description
Constant obstructive Pulmonary disease (COPD) is an essential reason of mortality and bleakness everywhere throughout the world. In United States, COPD stands third in the causes of mortality with annual 100,000 deaths .An estimated 15 million people had COPD diagnosed with health care provider in 2010 and un-diagnosed cases are 12 million in number. In China ,COPD stands first among disability causes and becoming a reason of public health attention.According to an interpretation COPD overall rate of prevalence is 8.2% in China mortality rate of COPD is 1.6%.
In 12 countries/Cities of Asia-Pacific localies Model Projections of the commonness of Moderate-to-Severe instances of COPD in Those Persons \> 30 years af age was total of 56,553,000 with total prevalance of 6.30%.Data are from the study held by the COPD regional working group.
Pakistan is a lower-middle-income country with a population of 182.1 million Pakistan, has a high load of chronic respiratory diseases a lower-middle-income country, with a population of 182.1 million. Age standardized death rate due to respiratory diseases is 138.2 per 100,000 in men and 41.3 per 100,000 in women in Pakistan.
"Effects of smoking mediation and the utilization of a breathed in anticholinergic bronchodilator on the rate of decrease of FEV1" presuming that This single intercession with the most extreme ability to impact the common history of COPD.in a lung wellbeing study assessment of the smoking suspension part demonstrates that if appropriate assets and time are given to end of smoking 25% quit rates can be picked up for long term.
an investigation in 2002 with the title of "Treating tobacco utilize and reliance" deriving that the act of conveying end of smoking help ought to take after "five A's" standards. The "five A's" of smoking discontinuance are Ask about utilization of tobacco, Advise to stop, Assess ability to influence an endeavor, To aid stop endeavor, Arrange development.
an exploration on " COPD-related dreariness and mortality in the wake of smoking discontinuance " inferring that concentrate of all the accessible writing underpins the elucidation that smoking suspension moderates the expanded rate of lung work decay and enhances survival as contrasted and kept smoking even in serious COPD.
" Arm situating adjusts lung volumes in subjects with COPD and solid subjects" which was distributed in Australian Journal of Physiotherapy reasoning that lung volumes were changed in subjects of COPD and sound subjects when looking at the arms situated over 90 degrees bear flexion with arms at or beneath 90 degrees bear flexion.In the COPD breathing at a higher volume of lung and having a diminished ability to take in a profound inhale when arms were over the head level may impact the capacity to do regular arm assignments that need height of the arms over the head. Change of the arm undertakings so arms are just lifted to 90 degrees may help in influencing arm to work more achievable for subjects with COPD.
In International Journal of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease reasoning that inspiratory muscle quality and intense exercise cause change of activity and respiratory muscle continuance execution and reductions dynamic hyperinflation and shortness of inhale amid exercise.
"Impact of cryotherapy and Airflow Stimulation Versus Controlled Breathing Exercise to Reduce Dyspnea in Patients With Obstructive Lung illness" In that they reasoned that facial icing and flow of air stimulation are viable and feasible technique for mitigating dyspnea in COPD patients.
Facial icing and airflow stimulation both of them were effective dyspnea relieving therapies which could be easily learnt by the COPD patient to overcome shortness of breathe on daily grounds. The point of this investigation was to decide the impact of Ice and Airflow Stimulation Versus Controlled Breathing Exercise to decrease Dyspnea in COPD patients.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) 4 weeks Changes from the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second FEV1 in Liters
Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) 4 weeks Changes from the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze peak expiratory flow PEF in Liter/second.
Forced vital Capacity (FVC) 4 weeks Changes from the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze Forced vital Capacity in Liters
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) 4 weeks Changes from baseline SPO2 was measured in percentage. Oxygen immersion is the division of oxygen-soaked hemoglobin with respect to add up to hemoglobin in the blood. Pulse oximeter measure it.
Medical Research Council (MRC) Breathlessness scale 4 weeks Changes from Baseline, MRC Dyspnea scale: it comprises of five explanations that portray nearly the whole scope of respiratory inability from none (Grade 1) to relatively total inadequacy (Grade 5).
ST. GEORGE RESPIRATORY QUESTIONAIRE 4 weeks changes from baseline questionnaire was measured A 50-item questionaire designed to measure impact on health status(quality of life) in patients with obstructive airway disease including COPD.Total 34 variables are included which are furthur sbudivided into two components: symptoms and activity/impact each consisting of 17 components. A total Score is Calculated from 0 (no health Impairment) to 100 (Maximum health impairment). In addition to the total score, there is also a score for each domain: symptoms, activity, and Impact which are scored 0-100 as well.
Respiratory Rate 4 week Changes from Baseline. The respiratory rate is the rate at which breathing happens. This is normally estimated in breaths per minute and 12-20bpm normally, chest movements used for its measurement.
BORG SCALE 4 weeks Changes from Baseline Borg scale measure rate of perceived exertion which ranges from 6 to 20. 6 means easy physical activity and 20 means severe.
