Conditions

Patients under mechanical ventilation.

Interventions

Intervention 1: Group A is the group that will do the manual percussion first and then expiratory rib cage compression. In the manual percussion procedure, the hands are cupped and all fingers are fol

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
End Tidal CO2. Timepoint: Exhaled CO2 is measured 4 times: before and minutes 1, 5 and 25 minutes after endotracheal suctioning. Method of measurement: Using Capnography Probe.;Oxygen saturation (SPO2). Timepoint: Oxygen saturation (SPO2) is measured 4 times: before and minutes 1, 5 and 25 minutes after endotracheal suction. Method of measurement: Using a pulse oximeter device (via monitor view).;Pulmonary compliance. Timepoint: Pulmonary compliance is measured 4 times: before and minutes 1, 5 and 25 minutes after endotracheal suction. Method of measurement: Through viewing the ventilator screen.;Airway resistance. Timepoint: Airway resistance measured 4 times: before and minutes 1, 5 and 25 minutes after endotracheal suction. Method of measurement: Through viewing the ventilator screen.;Respiratory rate. Timepoint: Respiratory rate is measured 4 times: before and minutes 1, 5 and 25 minutes after endotracheal suction. Method of measurement: Total spontaneous breathing and ventilator-provided breathing per minute by viewing the ventilator screen.	—
