diaphragmatic breathing as a relaxation technique during virtual reality exposure treatment. This strategy may be beneficial for exposure therapy since it reduces stimulation on the physiological level. Researchers hypothesized that diaphragmatic breathing would lead to less fear and physiological arousal during the virtual reality exposure therapy and to an enhanced treatment outcome. In this study, patients with aviophobia received treatment in virtual reality with or without diaphragmatic…

If breathing, turn into the recovery position. Check help has been called and continually assess that breathing remains normal. If there is any doubt about the presence of normal breathing, start chest…

environment. The breathing process is mainly controlled by the brainstem and peripheral system. The brainstem controls several important functions of the body like arousal, breathing, and blood pressure, among other functions. In the brainstem, the medullary respiratory center consists of two neuronal clusters: the DRG (dorsal respiratory group), which are in charge of the inspiratory and the VRG (ventral respiratory group), which triggers the expiration process in the lungs. The breathing…

more prone to develop hypertension. Cold pressor test (CPT) is autonomic function test which produces acute stress. Alternate nostril breathing exercise may be helpful in reducing the elevated sympathetic activity in obese and may be helpful in coping up the stress in obese subjects.

Our bodies maintain many complex systems in order to have a consistent internal environment to achieve homeostasis. The lungs which are part of the respiratory system play a crucial role in homeostasis by controlling our breathing. The lungs provide the appropriate interface for gas exchange to occur, this includes the delivery of oxygen to the blood and the removal of carbon dioxide carried in the blood to the alveoli which is then expired out of the body. The removal of carbon dioxide also…
