dc.description.abstractAs per 2019 report of the National Health Portal of India, 41,996,260 cases and 3,740 deaths from respiratory infections were recorded across India in 2018. The main aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of balloon therapy on increased level of oxygenation of patients with lower respiratory tract disorders. Quasi experimental design was used for this study. Balloon therapy improves pulmonary functions. Daily practice of blowing up balloon, once a day, 10 times per day for 10 days will steadily increase lung capacity. The data pertaining to lung capacity was collected using self-administered questionnaire. Respiratory assessment viz Vital, Tidal and Lung capacity were measured using balloon therapy. The pre-test mean and SD were 6.83 & 1.30 respectively where as posttest mean & SD were 7.16 & 1.26, with t-test value of 6.12. These reading indicate the effectiveness of Balloon therapy on lung capacity in patients with lower respiratory tract infections. The result of this study guides that regular practice of balloon therapy can improve the lung capacity to a greater extent among patients with lower respiratory tract infection. Off course, large sample size is recommended for generalization.en_US
