简要总结
Background: Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and characterized by tremor, rigidity and bradykinesia. Almost 84% of PD patient develops respiratory abnormalities and pointed as the most common cause of death. Airway obstruction, trunk muscle rigidity is the common cause of respiratory abnormalities.
Purpose: The main purpose of the study will evaluate the efficacy of chest PNF on pulmonary function and chest wall mobility in PD.
Methods: 20 participants will be recruited for study purpose and divide into two groups. Group= A will be the control group and participants will receive conventional treatment which includes deep breathing exercise and segmental breathing exercise, incentive spirometry etc for one week. Group= B participants will receive chest PNF exercise along with conventional treatment for a week. Pretreatment and post-treatment data will be recorded by the help of PFT (FVC, FEV1 & FEV1/FVC) and chest wall expansion at axillary and xiphisternal level for data analysis. Data analysis will be done by paired t-test for within group and independent t-test will be used for the between-group variable. The level of significance will be set at 0.05.

chest PNF
participants received conventional chest physiotherapy along with chest PNF technique 5 days for 1 week.
Chest PNF technique includes oblique downward pressure at the sternum, diagonal pressure at lower rib cage at the supine line, caudal medial pressure at side lying, Caudal pressure at ribcage at prone lying, dorsal and caudal pressure at prone on the elbow.
干预措施: chest PNF (Other)
Conventional
participants received conventional chest physiotherapy treatment, which includes Deep breathing exercise, Diaphragmatic breathing exercise, segmental breathing exercise and purse lip breathing and incentive spirometer
干预措施: Conventional (Other)
