The study will commence with participant recruitment, emphasizing individuals diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) who meet the predefined inclusion criteria. After obtaining informed consent, participants will be randomized into two groups: one receiving High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO) and the other Traditional Chest Physiotherapy (CPT). A baseline assessment of clinical parameters, respiratory function, and patient-reported outcomes will be conducted. Throughout the intervention period, participants will undergo the assigned therapy according to prescribed protocols.

Regular follow-up visits will assess treatment adherence, monitor potential adverse events, and collect data on relevant physiological and clinical parameters. The study will also incorporate subgroup analyses to explore potential variations in treatment response based on factors such as disease severity or comorbidities. The research team will employ standardized tools to evaluate patient-reported outcomes, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of subjective experiences.

Upon completion of the intervention period, a final assessment will be conducted to compare the effectiveness of HFCWO and CPT in managing COPD. Statistical analyses will be employed to discern any significant differences in clinical outcomes, physiological impact, and patient-reported measures between the two groups. The study’s findings aim to contribute evidence-based insights into the comparative effectiveness of HFCWO and CPT, informing future clinical practices for optimizing respiratory care in individuals with COPD.

Participants in both groups, undergoing the comparative study of High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO) and Traditional Chest Physiotherapy (CPT) for the management of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), will receive the following interventions:

HFCWO Group:

Participants in this group will undergo High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation using a device connected to an inflatable vest. The vest delivers oscillations or vibrations to the chest wall, facilitating mucus mobilization and airway clearance. Individuals will be trained on proper device usage and encouraged to perform HFCWO sessions as prescribed by healthcare providers.

CPT Group:

Participants assigned to the Traditional Chest Physiotherapy (CPT) group will receive manual chest physiotherapy administered by trained healthcare professionals. This may include percussion, vibration, and postural drainage techniques to assist in mobilizing and clearing respiratory secretions. Participants will attend scheduled sessions where CPT will be applied, and the techniques may be tailored based on individual patient needs and response.
