简要总结
Youngchildren experience an average of 6-8 respiratory illnesses per year in urbansetup and slightly lower in rural areas. Retained airway secretion is linked toa wide range of respiratory illnesses. Breathing exercise plays a remarkablerole in airway clearance and parenchyma expansion.
Quasi-experimental pretest and post test design wasused to select 20 children admitted to the pediatric ward with a diagnosis ofbronchitis, bronchiolitis and pneumonia. The level of dyspnoea was assessedbefore nebulization using a Pediatric Dyspnoea Scale (PDS). Respiratory rateper minute, oxygen saturation in percentage, chest expansion in centimeter andrespiratory sounds were assessed after nebulization. Interventional group wasadvised to blow the balloon after nebulization for 15 minutes once a day for2days consecutively.
Results: The mean age of children in the intervention group was 9.1± 2.71 while that in the control group was 8.75± 2.75. Independent‘t’ test shows thatthere was a statistical difference in the post test findings for oxygensaturation and chest expansion.
**Conclusion:**The study concluded that regular practice of balloonblowing exercise improves oxygen saturation and chest expansion to a greatextent in children with lower respiratory tract infection.
