Comparative Effects of Alternative Nostril Breathing Versus Buteyko Breathing on Control Pause, Dyspnea and Pulmonary Function in Patients With Bronchial Asthma
Comparative Effects of Alternative Nostril Breathing Versus Buteyko Breathing on Control Pause, Dyspnea and Pulmonary Function in Patients With Bronchial Asthma
Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflmmatory airway disease characterized by recurrent episodes of dyspnea, wheezing, and airflow limitation.
Dysfunctional breathing pattern and chronic hyperventilation
Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease in which there are recurrent episodes shortness of breath, wheezing,and limitation in airflow.
Chronic hyperventilation and dysfunctional breathing pattern and commonly contribute to symptom severity and poor asthma control.This study aims to compare the effects of Alternate Nostril Breathing and Buteyko Breathing Technique on control pause, dyspnea, pulmonary function, and asthma control in patients with bronchial asthma.This study aims to compare the effects of Alternate Nostril Breathing and Buteyko Breathing Technique on control pause, dyspnea, pulmonary function, and asthma control in patients with bronchial asthma.This study aims to compare the effects of Alternate Nostril Breathing and Buteyko Breathing Technique on control pause, dyspnea, pulmonary function, and asthma control in patients with bronchial asthma.A total of 40 patients with mild to moderate persistent bronchial asthma will be recruited and randomly allocated into two groups. Group A will receive Alternate Nostril Breathing, while Group B will receive the Buteyko Breathing Technique, along with standard pharmacological management.
The intervention will be conducted over a period of four weeks, with two supervised sessions per week and additional home-based sessions.
