Manual Diaphragm Release in Cleaning Laborer

Manual Diaphragmatic Release: Is It Helpful for Cleaning-laborers With Work-related Respiratory Hazards in Overcoming the Upsetting Respiratory Symptoms, Boosting Immune Response, and Enhancing Functional Ability?

NCT05802355•Maged Basha

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This study intended to examine the effect of manual diaphragm release on pulmonary function, chest wall mobility, and functional ability in female occupational cleaners with respiratory hazards.

Detailed Description

Cleaning chores have been linked to exposure to various chemical agents that have the potential to cause harmful effects on both the respiratory system and cardiovascular markers, many cleaning products and disinfectants contain ingredients that can act as airway irritants. One of the physical therapy procedures that is used to manage chest disorders is manual diaphragm release which aims to lengthen the diaphragm musculature whereas encouraging better and more proficient contraction.
