Brief summary

Inhalation injury become a more common cause of death in burn patients but alone the smoke injury has low mortality rate. It is reported that a combination of smoke injury with cutaneous burn increases the mortality rate and predispose to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. This experimental study aims to report the benefits of postural drainage on the respiratory system in burn patients. This study will determine the effects of postural drainage on oxygen saturation, airway clearance in burn patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome by comparing mechanical ventilation with and without the application of postural drainage. A randomized clinical trial will be conducted in the data and will be collected from the ICU of Jinnah Burn & Reconstructive Surgery Centre and Shafique Aziz Free Burn Centre through consecutive sampling through technique on 50 patients which will be allocated through sealed opaque enveloped into Group A and Group B. Pre and post treatment value of oxygenation and other variables for both group will be recorded by using APACHE II. Group A will be treated by postural drainage and mechanical ventilation for two consecutive days. Similarly, Group B will be treated by mechanical ventilation only. Data will be analyzed using SPSS software 25. After assessing the normality of data by the Shapiro-Wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric tests will be used within a group or between two groups.

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation IISECOND DAYAPACHE stands for Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II which is mostly used in the ICU to check the severity of the disease. This score measures the seriousness of sickness and the adequacy of clinical medical services and the doctor's decision allowing more exact prognostic delineation of seriously sick patients. APACHE II an integer score from 0 to 71 is computed based on several measurements; higher scores correspond to more severe disease and a higher risk of death The tool consists of twelve physiological variables. From which we are using five variables are age, Respiratory rate, Oxygenation (FiO2, PaO2), Mean Arterial Pressure, Glasgow comma score, Temperature, Systolic Blood Pressure, Heart Rate, Arterial pH, Acute Renal Failure, History of organ failure other than this Mechanical ventilation or CPAP, gender, and sputum profiles were also included which are not the part of this scale.
