Active Comparator

Active cycle of breathing technique
Autogenic drainage
Group A is a control group. First, the patients will receive baseline treatment (pursed lip breathing). Additionally, patients will be administered the Active Cycle of Breathing Technique after receiving the Baseline Treatment
Both the physiotherapist's hand and the subject's hands were put on the subject's abdomen to feel the activity of the abdominal muscles. The patient inhaled slowly through the nose while using their diaphragm and holding their breath for two to three seconds to allow collateral ventilation to bring air behind their secretions. Exhalation was done through the mouth. The palm of the therapist placed on the upper chest felt the vibration of the mucous. Their positions were disclosed by the vibrations' frequency. Secretions in tiny airways can be seen using high frequencies. The method has phases for unsticking, collecting and evacuation. The mucus was expelled by a stronger expiration or a high lung volume huff at the conclusion of the session.
