Abstract

Background: Asthma is a persistent inflammatory condition of the respiratory system characterized by airflow obstruction. Individuals with asthma frequently encounter dyspnea resulting from ineffective breathing patterns. Diaphragmatic breathing exercises represent an intervention aimed at alleviating these ineffective respiratory patterns. Purpose: this case study aims to delineate the nursing management of asthma patients exhibiting dysfunctional breathing patterns who were administered diaphragmatic breathing exercises as part of their therapeutic regimen. Method: the research employed a descriptive case study focusing on a patient diagnosed with asthma who was admitted to Dr Gondo Suwarno Ungaran General Hospital. Results: the findings indicated that nursing care management, incorporating diaphragmatic breathing exercises as an intervention, was effective in alleviating dyspnea. The intervention was implemented during a single session lasting six hours, with each breathing exercise conducted for ten minutes. The patient's initial respiratory rate (RR) of 30 breaths per minute decreased to 24 breaths per minute, accompanied by an increase in oxygen saturation from 92% to 98%. Discussion: Diaphragmatic breathing exercises facilitate the expulsion of carbon dioxide from the lungs, thereby decreasing respiratory workload and enhancing ventilation efficiency. It is advisable to incorporate diaphragmatic breathing exercises into the management strategy for individuals with asthma to improve oxygen saturation levels and reduce respiratory rate.
