ABSTRACT:
Background Breathing exercises have been widely used worldwide as a complementary therapy to the pharmacological treatment of people with asthma.
Objectives To evaluate the evidence for the efficacy of breathing exercises in the management of patients with asthma.
Search methods The search for trials led review authors to review the literature available in The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, CINAHL and AMED and to perform hand searching of respiratory journals and meeting abstracts. Trial registers and reference lists of included articles were also consulted. The literature search has been updated to January 2013.
