Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Growth and Development Disorders in Pediatrics Summary: Background: Respiratory problem in premature infants are the major causes of their morbidity and mortality, and they often use the expiratory breath hold more than term infants. Purpose: To evaluate the effect of stimulation of the abdominal muscles on weight and the arterial blood gases of preterm infants with collapsed lung. Subject and procedures: 45 preterm infants with lung collapse were not under mechanical ventilation. They were randomly assigned into three groups with equal number, group A received chest physiotherapy modalities (percussion vibration) plus medical treatment and group B received chest physiotherapy modalities in addition to stimulation to abdominal muscles using faradic stimulation plus medical treatment. Faradic stimulation was applied to rectus abdominals and external obloquies abdominal muscles for 10 minutes twice time daily. Weight and arterial blood gases (Po2, Paco2, PH, and Hco3) were monitored before and after four weeks of treatment application. Group C control group. Results: when the mean values of measured variable of both groups compared before and after treatment, there was significant difference within and between groups (P<0.001). Conclusion: Finally the abdominal stimulation may assist the effect of chest physiotherapy on pulmonary function in preterm infant with significant effect of the chest physiotherapy program in improving respiration and decrease lung collapse
