Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
FLUTTER
Since this was a crossover study, all patients performed all interventions in a randomized order.
Flutter valve
Flutter valve is a physiotherapy device commonly used for the treatment of pulmonary hypersecretive conditions. The patients is taught to exhale through the device, producing positive expiratory pressure and flow oscillations. In this study the intervention took 15 minutes. During this period the patients were free to cough.
ELTGOL
Since this was a crossover study, all patients performed all interventions in a randomized order.
expiration with the glottis open in lateral posture (ELTGOL)
This technique is a maneuver of slow expiration with the glottis open, with the subject in lateral posture. The patients performed three sets of 10 repetitions in left and right lateral decubitus.
CONTROL
Since this was a crossover study, all patients performed all interventions in a randomized order.
Control
Patients were instructed to stay comfortably seated during 15 minutes. After this period they were stimulated to cough during a five minutes period.
