MENESES TERRY, Mercedes R.. Programa de rehabilitación respiratoria en pacientes asmáticos: Repercusión sobre las pruebas funcionales respiratorias. Rev cubana med [online]. 1999, vol.38, n.3, pp. 178-182. ISSN 1561-302X.

The comparative results obtained from the values of the functional respiratory test made in a group of 20 patients with bronchial asthma were shown. These individuals had participated in a Program of Respiratory Rehabilitation, in which respiratory physiotherapy and respiratory kinesotherapy were applied during 36 sessions of treatment. It was possible to observe that those patients under treatment had significant changes in the values of the respiratory function that were 15 % over the initial values.
