Overview

Brief Summary

Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is very common during pregnancy, and is most likely explained by hormonal, physiological and physical changes. Maternal obesity, one of the major risk factors for SDB, together with physiological changes in pregnancy may predispose women to develop SDB. SDB has been associated with poor maternal and fetal outcomes. Thus, early identification, diagnosis and treatment of SDB are important in pregnancy.

Detailed Description

The present study will be conducted to add a new information to the body of knowledge of physical therapy profession as it will provide scientific basis for the clinical application of diaphragmatic release in sleep disordered breathing during pregnancy

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

pittshurgh sleep quality index

Time Frame: 1 month

The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is a self-report questionnaire that assesses sleep quality over a 1-month time interval. The measure consists of 19 individual items, creating 7 components that produce one global score, and takes 5-10 minutes to complete. Developed by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh,
