Fatema Begum was 59 years old and affected by Asthma & COPD. When she came to us for treatment we did investigations named Spirometry & ISWT. As a result we found her FEV1 level was 45%. She was able to complete the distance of 140m. When she finishes her Pulmonary Rehabilitations we investigated her again and found her FEV1 level was 64% and she was able to complete the distance of 200m.

We are getting a lot woman who finds a lot of difficulties to complete their household works. Some can not able to maintain both job life and family life as well. Fatema Begum was one of them. She was badly suffering with her disease. Before she came to us she was planning to quit her job because it was difficult for her to maintain both at the same time as she needed to do a lot of household works at home. She felt tired a lot and it increased her depression. After the PR now she is managing her both life happily & with no problem. PR increases her exercise capacity and quality of life as well.
