dc.description.abstract | Pneumonia is the cause of acute inflammation or infection lungs caused by
infectious agents (bacteria, viruses, fungi, and aspirated objects foreign), which stimulates a
response resulting in damage to the lung tissue (alveoli). Inflammation increases mucosal
production so that it occurs cough reflex that occurs in children. The onset of a productive
cough will accumulate the secretory output, but the child cannot independently take it out. It
will result in more and more accumulated secretions attached to the lungs. Chest physiotherapy
plays a role in cleansing accumulated secretions and improving respiratory status, thereby
decreasing road resistance breath, improving gas exchange, and making breathing easier.
Purpose: The literature review aims to explain chest physiotherapy on respiratory status
Children under five with pneumonia with nursing problems ineffective airway clearance.
Methods: A literature review using the PRISMA checklist and PICOS in selection determines
inclusion criteria. How to collect data using several electronic databases, including Springer
Link, PubMed, Science Direct, Taylor & Francis, and Scholar Total found 716, after screening
from 2015-2020. One hundred sixty-three articles do not fit into the study area. After that,
select items by title and abstracts totaling 147 articles. Articles other than in English and
Indonesian, there is 1 article. And article number 9 is not full text. Total papers which can be
reviewed totaling seven articles. Results: Children gave chest physiotherapy intervention under
five with pneumonia or toddler age. Chest physiotherapy is carried out by administering 20-30
minutes of sessions with a frequency of 2-3 times a day. Awarded in morning and evening or
before going to bed on condition that there are problems with status respiration and met
inclusion criteria. Conclusion: Chest physiotherapy is significantly affected the respiratory
status of children under five with ineffectiveness problems; airway clearance is more effective
when combined with other methods such as with a combination of nebulation and infrared. | en_US |
