Impact of yogic practices on pulmonary function and inflammatory biomarkers: A study on FVC, FEV₁, and FeNO levels in asthmatic patients

Kamakhya Kumar.


Abstract
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease characterized by airway inflammation, leading to episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and coughing. The condition significantly impairs quality of life and can result in severe complications if poorly managed. Yoga, a holistic mind-body discipline, has shown potential as an adjunct therapy to improve respiratory function in asthmatic individuals. This study examines the effects of a 12-week yogic practice regimen on Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV₁), and Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) in patients with asthma. Results indicate significant improvements in lung function and reduced airway inflammation, suggesting that yoga may offer a complementary approach to asthma management.

Key words: Yoga, Asthma, Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV₁), Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO), Pulmonary Function, Airway Inflammation, Yoga Therapy.
