Electrotherapy in Lung Diseases

Öz

Lung diseases; It is one of the disease groups that cause a global burden, reduce the quality of life and contribute significantly to mortality. Lung diseases; COPD represents a broad group, including bronchiectasis, lung cancer, asthma and interstitial lung diseases. Treatment methods for each disease's own mechanism of occurrence have been developed and are being developed. Although electrotherapy applications are partially applied in lung diseases among physiotherapy and rehabilitation applications, it has been emphasized that electrotherapy applications will provide additional benefits such as muscle strength increase and pain control, acceleration of tissue healing, and increase in exercise capacity in these patient groups. Our study sheds light on the electrotherapy applications applied in lung diseases and the literature on the effectiveness of these applications.

Akciğer Hastalıklarında Elektroterapi Uygulamaları

Öz

Akciğer hastalıkları; küresel boyutta yüke sebep olan, yaşam kalitesini düşüren ve mortaliye ciddi oranda katkıda bulunan hastalık gruplarındandır. Akciğer hastalıkları; KOAH, bronşektazi, akciğer kanseri, astım ve interstisyel akciğer hastalıkları dahil geniş bir grubu temsil etmektedir. Her bir hastalığın kendi oluş mekanizmasına dair tedavi yöntemleri geliştirilmiş ve geliştirilmektedir. Akciğer hastalıklarında, fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon uygulamaları arasında elektroterapi uygulamaları kısmen az uygulanmakla birlikte son yıllarda yapılan çalışmalarla elektroterapi uygulamalarının bu hasta gruplarında kas kuvvet artışının ve ağrı kontrolünün sağlanması, doku iyileşmesinin hızlandırılması, egzersiz kapasitesinin artırılması gibi ilave faydalar sağlayacağı vurgulanmaktadır. Çalışmamız, akciğer hastalıklarında uygulanan elektroterapi uygulamalarına ve bu uygulamaların etkinliği ile ilgili literatüre ışık tutmaktadır.
