About this study
Official title: Effects Of Trunk Rotation And Lateral Flexion Exercises On Peak Cough Flow And Chest Expansion In Stroke Patients
In this study we want to introduce the beneficiary combine effects of chest mobilization and chest physiotherapy exercises by using cough peak flow meter and chest expansion in stroke patients. by using theses combine exercises physiotherapist can develop target rehabilitation strategies for stroke survivors.
Read the detailed description
Stroke is a neurological deficit and acute focal injury of the by a vascular cause, including cerebral infarction, intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage and is a major cause of disability and death worldwide. 2nd most deadly cause of death and disability in patients. This disease have long lasting effect on human body and also cause complication of lung function like pneumonia and respiratory distress function syndrome for this purpose to reduce chest complication and neurological defect use of chest physiotherapy and chest mobilization exercises are introduce so that hospital stay of patients reduces and recovery at high speed according to previous studies there is very strong relationship between trunk muscles and respiratory muscle with pulmonary function and physiotherapist can develop target rehabilitation strategies for stroke survivors.however in previous studies age group of patients acute subacute or chronic and diaphragmatic breathing are not included for the improvement of effective cough.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Trunk Impairment Scale:
Changes from baseline this scale is used to assess motor impairment of the trunk after stroke through the evaluation of static and dynamic sitting balance as well as coordination of trunk movement. The initial static sitting balance score 0 means overall total score is O. and full score is 23. This tool is also used to assess progress of trunk movement.
Measured: 4th week
Peak Flow Meter
Changes from baseline Peak flow meter is used to access the peak cough flow in stroke patient's pre and post intervention. Cough peak flow (CPF) measures the maximum expiratory flow during the phase of a cough just after instant opening of the glottis, but peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) measures maximum expiratory flow, after a full deep inspiration, through an open glottis Normal peak cough flow is about greater than or equal to 270L/min. And the ineffective cough is about less than 160L/min.
Measured: 4th week
Chest Expansion:
A tape measure is used to evaluate the both upper and lower chest expansion in stroke patients. These chest expansions were performed three time and mean value of these are taken. By using tape measure, we determine the difference between rib cage circumference at the end of forced inspiration and at the end of forced expiration. The reliability score for chest expansion is about (0.99)
Measured: 4th week
