Investigation of Efficiency of Breathing With Different Breathing Patterns in Healthy Volunteers and Patients With Respiratory Failure


Our aim in this study is to investigate the efficiency of the breathing with different
breathing patterns. Ten volunteers and twenty patients having respiratory problems will be
coached on their breathing through specific masks which will provide four different
breathing patterns. These patterns will be 1) Breathing in through the nose only and out
through the mouth only 2) Breathing in through the mouth only and out through the nose only
3) Breathing in and out through the nose only 4) Breathing in and out through the mouth only
The data obtained from volunteers and patients will be compared within and between the
groups.
