Background: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) arises from accumulation of fluid in the tiny, flexible airsacs of the lungs. Individuals with ARDS may experience muscle weakness, due to a condition known as intensivecare unit acquired weakness, resulting in impaired physical function. To mitigate potential complications namelymuscle weakness and joint contractures, and to assist with weaning from mechanical breathing and enhance theoverall quality of life for individuals with ARDS, early rehabilitation is strongly advised.Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of pulmonary rehabilitation and respiratory muscle training againstconventional care among individuals with ARDS.Materials and Methods: 30 subjects diagnosed with ARDS were randomly selected from the intensive care unit orpatient ward of Saveetha Hospital following certain inclusion and exclusion criteria. The subjects were allocatedinto pulmonary rehabilitation with respiratory muscle training group (n=15) and conventional care group (n=15).The effectiveness of the treatments was assessed at the end of 4 weeks using a 30 seconds sit-to-stand test and St.George’s Respiratory Questionnaire.Results: Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to examine the data collected. All parameters underwentanalysis employing mean and standard deviation. To analyze significant differences, pre-test and post-testmeasures, a paired t-test was performed. P values < 0.0001 were deemed statistically significant.Conclusion: The combination of pulmonary rehabilitation and respiratory muscle training offered an adjunctivetreatment option for patients with ARDS, providing quality of life, and improving strength of the muscle activitiescompared to conventional care alone.

Background: Patient treatment after surgical excision of buccal mucosal carcinoma should prioritise symptomrelief and cancer prevention. Mouth exercise physiotherapy is widely regarded as a staple for expanding themouth, either on its own or in conjunction with other modalities. In order to better understand the manufactureand clinical effectiveness of Triscare mouth exercising devices in subjects with CA buccal mucosa, the currentstudy was conducted.Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Myofascial release for postoperative buccal cancerpatients.Materials and Methods: Subjects with buccal mucosa carcinoma were recruited from Saveetha Dental Collegeand Hospital for an experimental research using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Two week postoperative BuccalMucosa Carcinoma subject volunteer. The participants were secretly separated into two groups using envelopes.Before and after treatment, jaw exercise and Myofascial release groups had their mouth opening and quality of lifeevaluated. Statistical analysis was performed on the collected data, and conclusions were drawn.Results: At the 4-week follow-up, the intervention group’s mean MO (48.06mm) was significantly higher than thecontrol group’s (44.66 mm) (p 0.002), and the intervention group also reported significantly higher GTQ scores andhigher health-related quality of life scores across all domains and items.Conclusion: We concluded that Participants in the intervention group improved more than those in the controlgroup, and they also reported higher levels of engagement with and satisfaction with their therapy.
