ABSTRACT:
Objective: To evaluate the role of incentive spirometer as tool for providing chest physiotherapy.
Material and method: There were 53 patients of 18 to 60 years of age, who underwent major abdominal surgery taken as sample in NSCB Medical college Hospital, Jabalpur (M.P.). Data was collected in a predrawn proforma and analyzed. Appropriate statistical analysis was done.
Findings and interpretation: On analysis it was recorded that in control group chest complications was in 60 % of cases in comparison to only in 13 % of cases in incentive spirometry group. At probability of 0.05 these complication rate was highly significant (p = 0.0001). Thus incentive chest physiotherapy proved beneficial in comparison to no physiotherapy
