Conditions

patient undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery. This code indicates chronic ischemic heart disease caused by atherosclerosis (plaque buildup) in one or more native coronary arteries.The patient does not experience angina pectoris (chest pain) at the time of diagnosis.

Interventions

Intervention 1: Intervention group: Acapella (oscilatory PEP) Experimental group will take Acapella for 10-15 minutes per session, two times per a day for 1 days before surgery and 3 days after CABG o

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: A patient who is an adult admitted to the hospital for coronary artery bypass graft surgery after receiving a diagnosis of coronary artery disease.-Been between 33 years and 60 years old.-being open to taking part in the research and giving informed permission.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -individuals having a body mass index (BMI) between 16 and 28 kg/m2. -patients who have asthma or COPD. patients that need reintubation. patients who have history of respiratory tract infection.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR) For improvement in expiratory airflow indicating lung function recovery. Timepoint: as baseline one day before surgery (pre-intervention) and post intervention in three consecutive days after surgery. Method of measurement: Peak flow meter.;Arterial Blood Gases (ABG) we see the change in Arterial Blood Gases value before and after intervention. Timepoint: as a baseline (pre-intervention) one day before surgery and three consecutive days after surgery and post-intervention. Method of measurement: Blood Gas Analyzer.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Peripheral Oxygen Saturation. Timepoint: as baseline one day before surgery (pre-intervention) and post intervention in three consecutive days after surgery. Method of measurement: Pulse oximetey before and after breathing exercises.
