| Abstract |
Purpose : The purpose of this case study is find out the effect of the cardiorespiratory physical therapy on a pneumonia and pulmonary edema of thoracic aortic-arch dissection patient before and after surgery. Methods : The thoracic aortic-arch dissection patient taken a pneumonia and pulmonary edema was performed cardiorespiratory physical therapy that coughing assist, tapping, deep breathing exercise, chest mobilization and aerobic exercise(bicycle) for 4days. Result : The thoracic aortic-arch dissection patient taken a pneumonia and pulmonary edema having a dyspnea, high-fever, lot of sputum and general deconditioning is improved by the cardiorespiratory physical therapy for 4days. A dyspnea,
high-fever, lot of sputum of patient subsided and general deconditioning improved, patient's chest x-ray prove cardiorespiratory physical therapy that help restore patient's pneumonia and pulmonary edema. Conclusion : The result of application of cardiorespiratory physical therapy to the pneumonia and pulmonary edema of thoracic aortic-arch dissection patient demonstrate the importance of cardiorespiratory physical therapy in an approach to the pneumonia and pulmonary edema of thoracic aortic-arch dissection patient and treatment intervention. |
