简要总结
The air of this RCT is to evaluate the effects Diaphragmatic Myofascial Release technique on chest expansion and heart rate in patients with thoracic kyphosis
详细描述
This study focus on diaphragmatic release technique along with conventional therapy is more effective in improving chest expansion and with im-proved chest expansion, heart rate and blood pressure is also improved because tho-racic kyphosis impacts the way of heart and lung function creating stress response and increasing heart rate and blood pressure. Lung capacity is also reduced in indi-viduals with thoracic kyphosis. Postural alterations of thoracic spine result in im-paired chest expansion and length tension curve of diaphragm.

结局指标
主要结局
Chest Expansion
时间窗: 3rd week
Diaphragm is facially and mechanically attached to thoracic spine, so releasing tension in diaphragmatic muscles will improve biomechanics, resulting in greater chest expansion and improving heart rate.
Heart Rate
时间窗: 3rd week
Diaphragm a thin, flat muscle that separates the thoracic and abdominal cavity, is the primary muscle of respiration, which plays significant role in breathing and physiological regulation. Hyper kyphosis negatively affects chest expansion and heartrate by causing limited mobility in thoracic cage. Diaphragm is facially and mechanically attached to thoracic spine, so releasing tension in diaphragmatic muscles will improve biomechanics, resulting in greater chest expansion and improving heart rate
次要结局
- Thoracic Kyphosis(3rd week)
