Abstract
A study was conducted “to assess the effectiveness of balloon therapy on respiratory parameters among children aged between 6-12 years with lower respiratory tract infection in selected Hospitals at Dindigul District” was done. In present study a quasiexperimental research design was adopted. Non-probability Purposive sampling technique was used to selected the sample, each 30 sample in control and experimental group equally. In this study the pre test and post test level of respiratory parameters among the children with Lower respiratory tract infection in the control and experimental group were assessed. Effectiveness of balloon therapy on respiratory parameters among the children with Lower respiratory tract infection in experimental group were evaluated. The level of respiratory parameters assessed by using observational check list for both groups, in experimental group received balloon blowing exercise. The data gathered was analysed by descriptive and inferential statistical method and interpretations were made based on the objectives of the study. In experimental group the obtained„t‟ value for overall intervention was -15.521 which was highly significant at P<0.001 level. The study findings revealed that there was significant improvement in respiratory parameters in experimental group. Hence balloon blowing exercises were beneficial among children with lower respiratory tract infection
