Effect of Singing Exercises on Respiratory Function of Patients with Cervical Spinal Cord Injury

Objective: To explore the effect of singing training on the respiratory function of patients with cervical spinal cord injury (SCI), so as to enrich the rehabilitation nursing methods, reduce respiratory complications and improve the quality of life of the patients. Methods: Totally, 33 patients with cervical SCI were randomly divided into control group (n=18) and treatment group (n=15). Patients in the control group were given the routine rehabilitation training and routine respiratory training, and singing training was performed for 4 weeks in the treatment group on the basis of routine rehabilitation training and routine respiratory training. The forced expiratory vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2), heart rate and diaphragm thickening fraction (DTF) were measured before and after treatment. Results: After 4 weeks of treatment, the values of FVC and FEV1 in the two groups were significantly higher than those before treatment (all P<0.05), and the differences in FVC and FEV1 in the treatment group were significantly larger than those in the control group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in SpO2, heart rate and DTF in the two groups before and after treatment, and between two groups after treatment. Conclusion: The improvement of respiratory function in patients with cervical SCI is more obvious in the combination of singing training and routine rehabilitation training and routine respiratory training. Singing training is simple and easy to perform with good patient compliance, which can be used as a new attempt of rehabilitation nursing for respiratory dysfunction to patients with cervical SCI.
