“…Among these studies, 20 analyzed pump techniques [37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56], and five concerned pompages [57][58][59][60][61]. The included studies were published from 1968 to 2019 and conducted in the USA [38][39][40][41][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][54][55][56], Brazil [57,58,60,61], Italy [51,52,59], Egypt [37], Poland [53], and India [42]; the total number of patients who completed the assessments was 1632.…”

“…The treatment techniques used in the studies were osteopathic pump and pompage techniques. In 20 studies, thoracic lymphatic techniques were applied together with other techniques, such as pedal pump, abdominal pump, and sternal pump [37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56]. In five studies, pompages were used [57][58][59][60][61].…”

“…The duration of the treatments ranged from one day to seven weeks and the duration of each treatment ranged from two to 50 min. The interventions with which the pump techniques were compared were no treatment [37,52], light touch [44][45][46][47][48]50,54,56,57], conventional rehabilitation [38,41,42,51,53,55,61], vaccination [39,40] stretching [58], muscle-tension headache program and electrotherapy program [59], and educational lectures [60]. Primary outcomes were pain intensity, lung functions, blood count cell, and length of hospitalization.…”

The Effectiveness of Pump Techniques and Pompages: A Systematic Review

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: Osteopathic manual procedures called pump techniques include thoracic, abdominal, and pedal pumps. Similar techniques, called pompages, are also addressed to joints and muscles. Despite their widespread use, no systematic review has been published on their effectiveness. (2) Methods: CINAHL, Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, ISI Web of Science, PEDro, PubMed, and Scopus databases were searched until July 2020. Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) on adults were included. Subjective (e.g., pain, physical function) and objective (e.g., pulmonary function, blood collection) outcomes were considered. The Risk of Bias tool (RoB 2) and the GRADE instrument were used to evaluate the quality of evidence. (3) Results: 25 RCTs were included: 20 concerning the pump techniques and five concerning pompages. Due to the extensive heterogeneity of such studies, it was not possible to perform a meta-analysis. The risk of bias resulted from moderate to high and the quality of the evidence was from very low to high. Singular studies suggested some effectiveness of pump techniques on pain and length of hospitalization. Pompage seems also to help improve walking distance and balance. (4) Conclusions: Although several studies have been published on manual pump techniques, the differences for population, modalities, dosage, and outcome measures do not allow definite conclusions of their effectiveness.

“…The study group, apart from the standard procedure, received additional treatment, including soft tissue therapy, such as myofascial release and post-isometric relaxation in the area of the muscle fascia and the postoperative scar. The treatment was performed twice a week by a qualified physiotherapist and involved the relaxation of upper quadrant according to C. Manheim, general chest relaxation on both sides, general relaxation of the operated side of the chest, relaxation of lateral fascia of the trunk, myofascial relaxation of the pectoral major muscle and pectoralis minor, relaxation of the intercostal muscles using ischemic compression, post-isometric relaxation of pectoral muscles, scar treatment (vertical traction, diagonal stretching, static and dynamic rolling) [17]. To minimize potential errors introduced by the treating physiotherapist and medical staff, the women were asked not to inform the physiotherapist and medical staff about participation in the control or study group.…”

The aim of the following paper was to determine the influence of soft tissue therapy on respiratory efficiency and chest mobility of women suffering from breast cancer. This study was a controlled, randomized trial. Tests were carried out in a group of patients (n = 49) who were hospitalized in the Province Polyclinic Hospital, Konin, Poland. In the study group, irrespective of the standard physical therapy program, an additional therapy program was run. The program consisted of applying specific techniques of soft tissue treatment. All patients in each term were subject to pulmonary function tests, chest mobility, and pain assessment. Statistical analysis of the obtained results of spirometry and chest mobility assessment has revealed no differences in the analyzed parameters between the examined groups in the period of joint therapeutic treatment. In the period between the third examination and the end of the 11-month-rehabilitation treatment, statistically significant differences were observed in the analyzed spirometry parameters; however, there was no difference in the parameters describing airflow in small airways (maximal expiratory flow at 50% (MEF 50 ), peak expiratory flow (PEF) between individual groups during consecutive examinations in the course of diversified therapeutic treatment. Chest mobility assessment of the patients, performed during diversified therapeutic treatment, revealed statistically significant differences between the groups. However, there was no difference between the examined groups as far as pain sensation is concerned. Enhancing the regular rehabilitation program by including additional therapeutic methods, which are based on myofascial release and post-isometric relaxation techniques, had beneficial effects regarding respiratory system efficiency.

Background Postcardiac surgery, numerous factors have been shown to predict postoperative harm of QoL, such as age, female sex, history of hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, education level, marital status, and also psychological factors such as the presence of mood disorders. So, the essential key to self‐management is behavioural change, which is necessary to improve the quality of life of patients and Health outcomes. Aim The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the education programme on patients' health outcomes following open heart surgeries. Patients and Methods Quasi‐experimental research design carried out in intensive care for open heart surgery in Suez Canal university hospitals at Ismailia Governate on all available both sex patients performing open heart surgery for 6‐month period (60) using the following four tools: the first tool for patient's risk stratification model Euro Scale sheet; the second tool New York Heart Association scale for assessing functional abilities; the third tool for health outcomes sheet for assessing patient's quality of life and health status; and the fourth tool for assessing Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Results There was no significant difference found in the patient's vital signs before and after the educational programme. On the other hand, there was no statistically significant difference between overall quality of life and socio‐demographic characteristics before and after the educational programme. Conclusion This study concluded that the educational programme has a positive effect on patients' quality of life in patients' educational programme; improve patient's health status as indicated by improved patient outcomes. Relevance to Clinical Practice The most important finding was the value of the educational training programme to address the needs of open heart surgery patients, indicating that after heart surgery, patient education by training can be helpful in self‐care, and nurses can use a programme containing preparatory information to enhance results, alleviate patients problems, and improve the quality of life in patients with CABG.
