简要总结
Asthma is most common chronic disease of childhood. Complimentary therapies like the Buteyko breathing technique plays an essential role in the management. Various studies involving the Buteyko breathing technique in adults have shown good results, but studies related to pediatric asthma are rare. In asthma, there is CO2 washout which will lead to airway constriction and hence producing the symptoms. The Butyeko approach seeks to reduce airflow by teaching patients the best way to hold their breath at the functional residual capacity. It helps improve asthma control and quality of life index. Previous studies in children revealed that this technique has helped improve the symptoms reduced medication use but has not affected physiological parameters. Hence we plan to study the efficacy of this technique in improving asthma symptoms, pulmonary functions and quality of life index.
