For Segmental Breathing instruction, the therapist's hand is placed on the chest area to be expanded. The patient is encouraged to deeply breath and to preferentially "Send Air"to that area of chest where tactile stimulation is being applied by the therapist. On full expiration moderate compression is applied. To begin an autogenic drainage sit in a relaxed seated position with neck extended slightly. Blow patient's nose and huff, cough to clear your upper airways to mucus. This technique has three phases. Moving mucus from small airways (Unsticking), Moving mucus from small airways to medium sized airways(Collecting), Moving mucus from medium sized airways to large airways (Evacuation) Take in a deep breath. Hold the breath for three seconds. With some gentle force exhale all the air out of your lungs. Repeat three times. Do not cough untill after the third breath. Repeat sessions 3 times in a week for 4 almost weeks.

The most used pulmonary function test is spirometry. It assesses the capacity of the lungs to breathe in and out, especially the volume and/or velocity of air that can be expelled. When evaluating breathing patterns to detect diseases including asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, cystic fibrosis, and COPD, spirometry is useful. An FEV1/FVC ratio larger than 0.70 with both FEV1 and FVC over 80% of the expected value are considered normal spirometry data. TLC exceeding 80% of the predicted value is typical in the event that lung volumes are measured. Diffusion capacity that is more than 75% of the expected value is likewise regarded as typical

Pulse oximetry operates by shining a light through the skin at two different wavelengths_660 nm(red) and 940nm(infrared)_ and measuring the difference in light absorbance at the two wavelengths to estimate an arterial oxygen saturation

The breathlessness cough sputum scale tool is an effective means for measuring the impact of Pulmonary rehabilitation on improving patient tolerance and self reported symptoms as the result of COPD
