Effect of Deep Breathing Test on Female Patients of Iron Deficiency Anemia

Abstract

The present study was conducted to find out whether the deep breathing test and thus the autonomic nervous system are affected in female patients of iron deficiency anemia. Material and Method: In this study the change in heart rate was recorded with the help of ECG machine during inspiration and expiration phases of deep breathing maneuver. The change in heart rate was compared between 60 women with iron deficiency anemia and 60 age and socioeconomically matched women. Result: it was found that the change in heart rate was significantly altered in women with iron deficiency anemia (P<0.0001) when compared to controls. Conclusion: altered deep breathing test suggestive of altered autonomic function in iron deficiency anemia.
