| Abstract | Gastric perforation is a serious medical condition in which a hole develops in the wall of the stomach, leading to leakage of gastric contents into the abdominal cavity. It commonly occurs due to peptic ulcer disease, trauma, prolonged use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), alcohol intake, smoking, stress, or infection with Helicobacter pylori. Gastric perforation is considered a surgical emergency because it can lead to sepsis, respiratory complications, and even death if not treated immediately.Post-operative gastric perforation patients often experience several complications after surgery such as:Severe abdominal pain,Reduced chest expansion,Difficulty in breathing,Generalized weakness,Reduced mobility,Risk of pulmonary complications like atelectasis and pneumonia,Decreased functional independence,Muscle weakness due to prolonged bed rest.Physiotherapy plays a very important role in the rehabilitation of post-operative gastric perforation patients. Early physiotherapy intervention helps in improving lung expansion, reducing respiratory complications, improving circulation, decreasing pain and stiffness, increasing mobility, and restoring functional independence.The purpose of this case study is to evaluate the effectiveness of physiotherapy management in improving respiratory function, mobility, pain, muscle strength, and overall functional recovery in a post-operative gastric perforation patient. |
