Abstract
Hypoventilation syndrome arises from a complex interaction between sleep-disordered breathing, diminished respiratory drive, and obesity-related respiratory impairment. Treatment by using positive pressure therapy, weight loss, and pharmacological management. Using breathslim improves lung ventilation and lymph circulation, which is responsible for removing toxins from our body and improves breathing. Forty patients of both sexes as 20 men and 20 women their age ranged from 55-65years with hypoventilation syndrome were recruited from inpatient departments of El Ahrar hospital at zagazig. The practical work continued for 6 months. patients were assigned into 2 groups equal in number (A and B) .parameters measured from both groups regarding body weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, hip circumference, waist/hip ratio (WHR), atrial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), atrial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and level of bicarbonate (HCO3{u2212}), also apnea hypo apnea index (AHI) was used to evaluate number of times the patient had obstructive sleep apnea during sleeping hours, these parameters were statistically analyzed and compared before initiation and following the treatment program. group (A) 20 patients (11women and 9 men) were included in this group that received traditional diaphragmatic breathing exercise, diet (1296-1620 cal\day) and breathslim training3 times per w for 12 w. Their mean±SE age, weight, height, and BMI were 59.3±2.83 years, 116.1±8.19 kg, 168.6±3.11 cm, and 40.88±3.13 kg/m² respectively. group (B) 20 patients as (9 women and11 men) were included in this group that received traditional diaphragmatic breathing exercise and diet(1296-1620 cal\day). Their mean±SE age, weight, height, and BMI were 59.55±3.01 years, 118.4±9.24 kg, 169±3.92 cm, and 41.4±2.13 kg/m² respectively
