In the case of COVID-19, physiotherapy is critical in non-invasive support management, postural changes, chest physiotherapy (CPT), and bed mobility. This study aims to look into the effects of physiotherapy intervention on functional outcome levels in COVID-19 patients in the acute stage.<\/p>\n Methods: A total of 60 severe COVID-19 patients (54 males and 6 females) with a mean age of 50\u00a0years were studied. The intervention group (n<\/em>\u00a0=\u00a030) had two daily physiotherapy sessions that included positioning, CPT, cardio exercises, breathing exercises, and early mobility, whereas the control group (n<\/em>\u00a0=\u00a030) received only standard medical care. Patients were tested twice at the baseline and discharge using peripheral oxygen saturation, respiratory rate (RR) test, dyspnea rate, two-min walk test, and spirometer scores, forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1).<\/p>\n Results: The two groups improved significantly between the baseline and discharge ratings. The intervention group, on the other hand, significantly improved all outcome indicators at discharge (p<\/em>-value\u00a0=\u00a00.00). This study found that physiotherapy management improved oxygen saturation, RR, dyspnea, and lung function tests in COVID-19 patients except in FVC (p<\/em>-value\u00a0=\u00a00.402) and FEV1(p<\/em>-value\u00a0=\u00a00.114).<\/p>\n Conclusion: Physiotherapist interventions with COVID-19 patients increase respiratory function and treatment time.<\/p>\n \u0643\u064a\u0641\u064a\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0627\u0633\u062a\u0634\u0647\u0627\u062f \u0644\u0644\u0628\u062d\u062b:<\/strong><\/p>\n Abufara, A., Amro, A., & Ahmad, M.
