Abstract Aim of the study: To compare the effect of autogenic drainage and counter rotation on blood gases in thoraco abdominal surgery. Patients and methods: This study comprised 40 post thoraco abdominal surgery patients aged from 40-50 of both sexes who chosen from kasr El-Aini Hospital. They were assigned into two groups equal in number. group A: 20 patients received first traditional physiotherapy (breathing exercise, percussion, vibration with postural drainage) then autogenic drainage group B:20 patients received first traditional physiotherapy (breathing exercise, percussion, vibration with postural drainage) then counter rotation. The treatment was applied 3 times per day for 2 weeks. Data obtained from both groups regarding partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂), partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO₂) , level of bicarbonate (HCO₃), oxygen saturation (SaO₂) and PH at 1st, 7th and 14th dayswere statistically analyzed and compared. Results: The results of this study proved that in group A there were significant different in PaO₂, HCO₃, PH. But there were no significant different in PaCO₂ and O₂ saturation, between 1st,7th and 14th day. And proved that in group B There were significant different in PaO₂,HCO₃,SaO₂, PH but there was no significant different inP {u0363} O₂, between 1st,7th and 14thday. And there were no significant different between both groups in first day. But at the end of 14days there was significant difference in oxygen saturation between both group. There was a significant increase in SaO₂ of group A compared with that of group B at 14th day (p = 0.001) |
