Brief Summary
|
The rural sector is an essential component of any country’s
economy, and it is characterized by a large number of workers involved in
various activities such as agriculture, forestry, and small-scale industries. Sawmills,
sugar cane, and bidi workers are among the workers in the rural sector who are
frequently exposed to hazardous working conditions that can negatively impact
their health. These workers are at a higher risk of developing respiratory and
cardiovascular diseases due to prolonged exposure to dust, smoke, and other
harmful substances. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of yoga asana and Pranayama
on cardiopulmonary functions in sawmills, sugar cane, and bidi workers in the
rural sector. 120 workers were randomly assigned to a yoga
or control group. The yoga group underwent a 12-week program of yogasana and Pranayama,
while the control group continued their usual activities. Cardiopulmonary
functions were assessed at baseline and after the intervention using
spirometry, peak expiratory flow rate, and pulse oximetry. The
results may show that the yoga & pranayama group significantly improved
spirometry parameters, peak expiratory flow rate, and pulse oximetry readings
compared to the control group. |
