Description

The study was designed to compare the method of thoracic breathing with the method of abdominal breathing, taking measure of indexes of physiology on an utilization to pregnant women.<br>36 non-pregnant healthy women (21.7±0.8 years of age) were chosen as the subjects of the study.<br>The results may be summarized as follows;<br>(1) There were significant differences in heart rate of a slow and deep breathing style between the thoracic and abdominal breathing, but was no significant difference in other physiological index in both breathings.<br>(2) The thoracic breathing was higher tcPO₂ levels and lower tcPCO₂ than attempts on the abdominal breathing and the resting level, therefore the thoracic breathing indicates the possibility of the condition of hyperventilation easily than the abdominal breathing.<br>(3) Take a slow and deep abdominal breathing showed more decrease heart rate than the resting level, and a rapid breathing showed remarkably lower the diastolic blood pressure.<br>According to our result this time, it seems to be quite all right to use both breathings during term of delivery.
