Brief Summary: This study aims to improve pulmonary function impairment is associated with a reduction in chest expansion lung volume pain perception and an impairment of the Post cardiac surgery patients ability to cough effectively The technique of active cycle breathing consisted of three parts to the ACBT which are

breathing control
deep breaths
huff or cough
Detailed Description: This study aims to explore the effect of Active Cycle Breathing Technique on Respiratory Parameters and Pain in Early Post Cardiac Surgery Patients

Research hypothesis

-Post cardiac surgery patients who practice active breathing techniques exhibit an improvement in clinical outcomes compared to those who do not practice

Research design

A parallel randomized control trial research design will be utilized to conduct this study

Study Setting

This study was carried out at the cardiac ICUs A Purposive sample of 120 cardiac patients will be assigned in the current study from the previously mentioned settings

The patients will be allocated into two equal groups each with 60 patients The control group will be composed of 60 patients who were managed by routine cardiac care The study group will consist of 60 patients who were exposed to an active cycle of breathing techniques

Inclusion criteria

Adult patients of both genders
After extubating for at least 6 hours
Hemodynamic stable patients
Able to communicate Exclusion criteria Patient with complication postoperative surgery Patients demographic characteristics as patients code age gender marital status education and occupation

Study group managed by the use of active cycle breathing techniques combined with routine physiotherapy

Each session of the active cycle breathing technique lasted for 10 to 20 minutes
The active cycle breathing technique was carried out for three days post extubating four sessions done daily

Implementation of active cycle breathing technique

Explain the steps of ACBT to the patient
The patient was placed in a semi-sitting position with her or his back straight and instructions were given to the patient to do the following steps

1 Breathing control phase
Hold the spirometer straight
Exhale then seal your lips around the mouthpiece and inhale slowly and deeply into your mouth
The piston in the incentive spirometers transparent chamber will rise when you inhale deeply
Hold your breath for 3 to 5 seconds after taking a deep breath
Remove the mouthpiece and slowly exhale For a few seconds until the piston descends to the bottom of the chamber relax and breathe normally
To regain control of their breathing the patient was told to do lengthy slow expirations between 5 and 7 times

2 Thoracic expansion exercises The patient was instructed to relax your upper chest
The patient was instructed to breathe slowly and deeply through the nose without using the accessory muscle
The patient was instructed to hold their breath initially for 3 to 4 seconds and gradually increase it to the maximum time

Dont force the breath out instead softly exhale through pursed lips until your lungs are empty

Repeat the previous steps from 3to4 times 3- Forced expiration technique huffing
Patient was instructed to support the incision site by using a chest binder or keeping your hands over your incision
Cough twice as many times as they huffed two to three times
This step was repeated a minimum of two times and a maximum of three times in one session
