To increase ventilation and improve gas exchange, decrease work of breathing, increase excursion of diaphragm
Diaphragmatic Breathing
To emphasize expansion of hypoventilated segments of lungs.
Segmental Hypoventilation
To relieve dyspnea and keep airway open and improve exercise tolerance
Pursed-Lip Breathing
To improve weaning from ventilator and improve cough
Glossopharyngeal Breathing
