Breathing exercises for kids recovering from severe pneumonia
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a gentle breathing exercise program designed to help children aged 6 to 18 recover from severe pneumonia. It aims to see if the program is practical and helps improve breathing and recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
