Q

Thoracic Mobility Exercises to Enhance Inspiration

A

Explain: I’m going to teach you an exercise to help you expand your ribcage to take larger breaths

Butterfly:
Patient sitting < hands behind your head in a slouched position < bring elbows out as you inhale deeply < exhale normally through mouth as you come back to start

Home exercise:
Patient sitting < hands down by feet in a slouched position < bring arms and chest up as you inhale deeply < exhale normally through mouth as you come back to start

-to expand one side abduct ipsi arm and SB to contra

21
Q

Thoracic Mobility Exercises to Enhance Expiration

A

Explain: I’m going to teach you an exercise to help you close your posture to take release breaths out

Butterfly:
Patient sitting < hands behind your head in a slouched position during inhale normally through the nose < bring elbows down by your ears as you exhale with PURSED LIPS < inhale normally through nose as you come back to start

Home exercise:
Patient sitting < inhale trough nose normally < hands down by feet in a slouched position as you exhale through PURSED LIPS < inhale normally through nose as you come back to start

-to expand one side abduct ipsi arm and SB to ipsi too force out air

22
Q

Postural Drainage

A

Prone (head down): lower lobes, posterior segment

Sidelying (head down a little): lateral lobes

Supine: anterior lobes, middle lobe

Forward Lean: anterior and superior lobes2

23
Q

Percussion

A

Explain: To loosen and remove secretions i’m going to do some cupping and precussion, Show on leg

Position to help gravity drain into larger areas < cup hands and percusses for 15-30s < reasses vitals < repeat 3x < add vibration on exhale < reasses vitals

CONTRAINDICATIONS:
-hemmorage, emoblism, new babies with respiratory issues, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, bone issues

-COPD: can cause spasms, pursed lip exhalation, more secretions

24
Q

Vibration

A

-used on chest wall during exhalation
-can be used when percussion not tollerated

CONTRAINDICATIONS:
-hemmorage, emoblism, new babies with respiratory issues, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, bone issues

-COPD: can cause spasms, pursed lip exhalation, more secretions

25
Q

Special Considerations for Airway Clearance with COPD

A

Percussion can cause spasms, pursed lip exhalation, more secretions
-avoid forced exhalation
-head down might not be tolerated

26
Q

Coughing

A

Explain: I’m going to teach you how to prepare and to cough to best clear the lungs of secretions

Position: upright with towel <Teach segmental Thoracic Expansion < hold on inspiration < Recruit abdominals by tightening muscles like preparing for a punch < hunch over and cough into napkin

CONTAINDICATIONS:
-surgical incisions, aortic aneryism, hemmorage, wounds, tolerance

27
Q

Huffing

A

Explain: I’m going to teach you another technique when coughing isn’t working. It is more of a forced breath like fogging up your glasses

Sit patient upright with towel < segmental thoracic expansion < hold on inspiration < recruit abs < open mouth on an “O” and huff while flexing trunk

-good for noneffective coughs, COPD less forced exhale

28
Q

Active Cycle Breathing Technique

A

Explain: We will combine deep breathing, huffing, and coughing

Relaxed diaphragmatic breathing < gradually breathing deeper (note crackles early are large airways and late are small airways) < Add thoracic expansion < inspire and hold 3s < relaxed exhalation in sigh < 1-2 huffs < if phlem is heard, cough gently < relax breathing

29
Q

Autogenic Breathing

A

-self drainage to control mucus

Explain: Self drainage to control mucus

-breathe normally, breath diaphragmatically for 3-4 breaths, exhale completely, inhale maximally, let me know when you feel secretions

Level 1: Unsticking of mucus
-avoid coughing < exhale completely < inhale a small breath and hold 1-3s < repeated until crackles are heard

Level 2: Collecting the mucus
- avoid coughing < slighly larger breath < hold for 1-3s < slight exhale < repeat until crackles heard at the end of exhale < continue for 2-3 more breaths

Level 3: Evacuating mucus
-slow deep breath < hold 1-3s < exhale forcefully in a towel< spit out secretion < if not, do 2-3 large huffs

30
Q

Patient Paced Diaphragmatic Breathing (Emphysema)

A

-allows for ambulation, prevents dypnea, helps with management of dypnea

Explain: I’m going to teach you how to breathe properly during different activities to conserve your energy while we move.
-you will inhale normally and exhale through pursed lips

Supine < Palpate diaphragm and tell to breathe into hand < exhale and PURSE LIPS during transitional mmt (roll to sit) < put on gait belt < show relief position if needed (bend over and breathe into belly) < reminder to pace themselves < walk and guard

31
Q

Diaphragmatic Breathing (Obstructive/Emphysema))

A

-ease breathing in a controlled manner
-in all positions

Explain: I’m going to teach you a breathing technique tha focuses on using your diaphragm so you can do less work to breathe

Position patient upright < palpate diaphram and place Pt hand on it and upper chest < instruct them to breath in through the nose REGULARLY and slowly through their mouth with PURSED LIPS < encourage them to feel it more in their belly than chest

32
Q

Emphysema

A

-COPD
-Obstructive
-red skin, skinny, pursed lips
-working hard to exhale air, can still oxygenate
-hypercompliant lung balloons alveoli trapping air

33
Q

Chronic Bronchitis

A

-COPD
-obstructive
-inflamation of bronchioles obstructing/narrowing airway and increasing mucous
-“blue bloater”

34
Q

Segmental Thoracic Expansion

A

-place hand in diaphragm under constal angle < instruct to breathe into hand < place other hand low on sides of ribs < instruct to breathe into hand < place first hand into upper ribs; apical (not sternum) < instruct to breath into hand

CONTRAINDICATIONS:
-pneumothorax, hemmorage

35
Q

Tracheal Tickling Technique

A

-if effective cough cannot be produced

-apply digital pressure to trachea, right above sternal notch, move side to side

36
Q

Tongue out Technique

A

-if effective cough cannot be produced

-deep breath and stick toungue out before cough

37
Q

Chest Wall Excursion: Direct Technique

A

Explain: I’m to place my hands on your shoulders, chest and mid back to see how it expands on each side
-Breathe normally, looking for symmetrical movement
-inhale maximally

Apixal:Palms at upper trap, thumbs meet at clavicles

Middle: palms below nipple line, thumb meet at middle

Posterior Lobe: behind Pt, palms under 10th rib

38

A

Explain: I’m to meaure your chest and mid back to see how it expands on each side when breathing
-Breathe normally 1st
-inhale maximally 2nd round
-measure all 3 and average (8.5cm)

Upper: 4th costal cartilage
Middle: xiphoid process
Lower: 9th constal cartilage

39
Q

Bronchophony

A

Explain: I’m going to listen your lungs and see how equal the sounds are on both sides while you repeat certain sounds

-chest wall examination using stethoscope
-listen for increased (consolidation) or decreased sounds

-say “Blue moon” and listen to changes in each lobe

40
Q

Egophony

A

Explain: I’m going to listen your lungs and see how equal the sounds are on both sides while you repeat certain sounds

-chest wall examination using stethoscope

41
Q

Whispered Pectoriloquy

A

Explain: I’m going to listen your lungs and see how equal the sounds are on both sides while you repeat certain sounds

-chest wall examination using stethoscope from top to bottom and side to side
-listen for increased (consolidation) or decreased sounds

-Whisper “99” and check for differences

42
Q

Mediate Percussion

A

Explain: I’m going be tapping my fingers along your chest and back to see if the sounds change from side to side

-strike finger at intercostal spaces anterior and posterioly over each lobe

Expectations:
Resonant (low longer) sounds over the lungs; filled with air

Dull: (higher pitched and shorter) indicate more dense structures/fluid, consoldation

Hyper-resonant: very low pitched and long; decreased tissue (emphysema)

Flat: muscle

Tympanic: high pitched, hollow structures

43
Q

Diaphragmatic Excursion

A

Explain: I’m going to tap several parts of your back to listen to how your diaphragm is moving as you breathe
-inhale and hold your breath
-Exhale and hold your breath

-tap down back from T7 and listen to where the resonant sound stops both time
-measure disance (3-5cm norm)
-repeat on other side

44
Q

Restrictive Lung Diseases

A

-decreased in vital capacity
-lung compliance reduced and stiffness limits expansion
-lower ventilation

Ex: pneumonia, collapsed lung

45
Q

Diaphragmatic Breathing (Restrictive)

A

-ease breathing in a controlled manner
-in all positions

Explain: I’m going to teach you a breathing technique tha focuses on using your diaphragm so you can do less work to breathe
