Effect of Chest Physiotherapy Technique on Bilateral Bronchial Pneumonia Secondary to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Case Report.

Curēus 2023 December
This case report investigates the impact of a specific chest physiotherapy technique on a patient with bilateral bronchial pneumonia secondary to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ARDS is a life-threatening condition characterized by severe respiratory failure, and bronchial pneumonia can further complicate the clinical course. The chosen chest physiotherapy technique aims to improve respiratory function and alleviate symptoms in the context of this challenging scenario. ARDS can develop in individuals who are seriously injured or have other severe conditions. ARDS is characterized by insensitive cyanosis, declining lung compliance, and high morbidity in intensive care units. It is a complicated and accumulating condition that develops from acute damage to the lungs. The case involves a detailed examination of a patient diagnosed with bilateral bronchial pneumonia as a complication of ARDS. The application of a targeted chest physiotherapy technique is described, emphasizing its methodology and the rationale behind its selection. Through this case report, we aim to contribute valuable insights into the potential efficacy of the specific chest physiotherapy technique for managing respiratory complications associated with ARDS-induced bilateral bronchial pneumonia. The findings may have implications for clinical practice, guiding healthcare professionals in tailoring interventions for similar cases and optimizing patient care in critical respiratory conditions. Additionally, the report underscores the importance of individualized approaches in the management of complex respiratory disorders, highlighting the need for further research to validate and refine such therapeutic strategies. The report delves into the patient's response to the intervention, documenting any observable improvements in respiratory parameters, lung function, and overall clinical outcomes. There were numerous etiologists, and it frequently ended in intense respiratory failure; after that death, the majority of care is supportive and concentrates on treating the underlying cause as well as providing ventilation. Physical therapy should begin as soon as the ARDS is treated. In this case, we discuss and conclude the various aspects of physiotherapy interventions for bilateral bronchial pneumonia secondary to ARDS. Chest physiotherapy plays an important role in respiratory conditions for breathing effectiveness and to reduce airway resistance.
