First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two different breathing exercises in 40 children aged 5 to 16 who have fluid around their lungs (pleural effusion). One group will use a simple bubble-blowing device combined with deep breathing, while the other uses a standard spirometer. The goal is to see which method better improves lung expansion and reduces shortness of breath.
