Detailed Description: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection leads to significant respiratory symptoms that have negative impact on function and quality of life (QoL). Breathing exercises are effective and important in patients with COVID-19. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Buteyko breathing versus Bhastrika Pranayama on different outcome measures in COVID-19 Patients. Sixty patients of both genders with age range from 40-50 years old were recruited from El Khankah Centeral Hospital with positive nasopharyngeal swab samples and presence of ground-glass opacification in their chest computed tomography scan (CT-scan). Patients were assigned randomly into two groups A \& B and took their medications. Group A received traditional physical therapy program (mobility exercises and Postural drainage) with Bhastrika Pranayama breathing exercise. Group B received traditional physical therapy program with Buteyko breathing exercise. Patients were assessed by Modified Borg Dyspnea Scale (MBS), blood samples (levels of CRP and d-dimer), six-minute walk test (6MWT), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) Questionnaire.
