    Re: Physiotherapy for end stage COPD

    Hey guys

    I have 2 52 year old lady. She has a history of hypertension and diabetes which is controlled with meds. She smokes 20 cigarettes a day for the last 32 years. For the last 6 months she has been experiencing increased shortness of breath. Currently she has a dry unproductive cough. After the clinical exam I found: the use of accessory muscles, barrel chest shape, presence of cyanosis and finger clubbing

    I would please like your help on a detailed physiotherapy management of the chronic lung obstructive lung diseases.

    Thank you
