Background and purpose: Body positioning is prescribed by Physical Therapists to directly enhance oxygen transport and oxygenation, to minimize the risk of aspiration, and to drain pulmonary secretion in most of the intensive care units. The aim of this study is to assess pulmonary function in sitting, right mid-prone, left mid prone position in healthy young adult subjects and to compare the effect of Body Mass Index (BMI) on pulmonary function in sitting, right and left mid prone position.Materials and Methods: We recruited 60 healthy male volunteers by using convenience sampling with the mean age 20.5 ranges from 18-30 years. The subjects were divided into two groups based on their BMI (Group A BMI 18.5-24.9kg/m2and Group B BMI>25kg/m2 ). The spirometric test was done to measure Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), Slow Vital Capacity (SVC), Maximum Voluntary Ventilation (MVV) in sitting, right side lying and left side lying position, the values of three different positions were compared with in the groups and between the groups.
Results: FVC and FEV1 values show significant changes in three different positions in normal and obese subjects. The MVV of normal and obese groups in sitting, right side lying and left side lying was significantly varied. There was no significant difference in other values.
Conclusion: With right side and left side lying position the FVC and FEV1 values decreased significantly in compare to the sitting position, and there is no difference in lung volumes between normal and obese except MVV. MVV is significantly reduced in right and left side lying position. Upright sitting position will increase the lung volumes and capacities compared to the other positions.

Background and purpose: Coronary artery Bypass Graft (CABG) is the commonly performed revascularization procedure after a major vessel block. Many studies have indicated that there is a reduction in Quality of Life after CABG. The aim of our study was to compare the Quality of Life (QOL) in off pump and on pump CABG patients before and after phaseII Cardiac rehabilitation and to find out the effectiveness of cardiac rehabilitation to improve the QOL.Materials and Methods: The QOL of 50 patients consisting of two groups were studied on two different occasions before phase II cardiac rehabilitation and after Phase II cardiac rehabilitation respectively by using SF-36v2 questionnaire.
Results: 50 patients with the mean age 47.9 years, (range 40-58) completed the study. Following the cardiac rehabilitation there was a marked improvement in the QOL of both the groups, and the physical and mental components scores in the SF-36v2 questionnaire were increased. The difference between the scores of off pump and on pump CABG was significant before phase II cardiac rehabilitation. After phaseII cardiac rehabilitation, there were no significant changes between the scores except for those of general health (p=.005), emotional role functioning (p
Conclusion: The QOL was seen to increase significantly after 3 months of structured cardiac rehabilitation program(comprising of Phase I and Phase II cardiac rehabilitation) in both on pump and off pump CABG patients .There were significant changes in the all the 8 domains in the SF-36v2 questionnaire in both groups before and after Phase II cardiac rehabilitation, but there was no significant difference in QOL between on pump and off pump CABG subjects after Phase II cardiac rehabilitation program.
