What is Cardio-Pulmonary Physiotherapy?
Cardio-pulmonary physiotherapy is a specialized branch of physiotherapy that focuses on the rehabilitation of patients with heart and lung conditions. The goal is to improve cardiovascular endurance, respiratory efficiency, oxygen intake, and overall functional capacity through personalized exercise, breathing techniques, and physical rehabilitation.
Who Needs It?
Patients suffering from or recovering from:
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Asthma or Bronchitis
Post-COVID Lung Damage
Post-Heart Attack (Myocardial Infarction)
Open Heart Surgery
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
Pulmonary Fibrosis
Emphysema
Lung Infections (Pneumonia, TB)
Post-ICU or Ventilator Rehabilitation
Techniques Used
1. Breathing Exercises
Techniques like diaphragmatic breathing, pursed-lip breathing, and incentive spirometry help expand lung capacity and improve oxygen exchange.
2. Chest Physiotherapy
Includes percussions, vibrations, and postural drainage to remove mucus and secretions from the lungs.
3. Aerobic Training
Supervised walking, cycling, or treadmill exercises improve heart-lung endurance and stamina.
4. Airway Clearance Techniques
Used to help patients clear secretions in conditions like cystic fibrosis or bronchiectasis.
5. Oxygen Therapy Support & Weaning
Guidance and exercises to help patients wean off long-term oxygen therapy after ICU or chronic lung disease.
