Uses
Acute chest syndrome of sickle cell disease
Incentive spirometry may help patients with acute chest syndrome of sickle cell disease according to a small randomized controlled trial.[1] However, this topic has not been well researched and so is subject to false positive conclusions due to publication bias.
Perioperative care
Incentive spirometry does not clearly help reduce pulmonary complications during the perioperative care after coronary artery bypass grafting according to a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials by the Cochrane Collaboration. [2]
It is not clear that incentive spirometry is better than supervised deep breathing according to a randomized controlled trial.[3]
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations
Incentive spirometry may help patients with exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease according to a small randomized controlled trial.[4] However, this topic has not been well researched and so is subject to false positive conclusions due to publication bias.
