Effect of Incentive Respiratory Training on Pulmonary Functions and Functional Capacity in Children With B-thalassemia Major
The study was done to:
1. Investigate the effect of respiratory training on functional lung capacity and 2. To detect the effect of respiratory training on pulmonary functions in children with β-thalassemia major. 3. To detect the level of oxygen saturation and heart rate during and after blood transfusion in children with β-thalassemia major.
Inclusion: Diagnosed as thalassemia \& subjected to blood transfusion; Their age range from 6 to 10 years old; Both sexes, male and female, will participate; Subjects are able to follow simple verbal commands or instructions included in the procedures.
