Abstract : Background :Respiratory management including deep breathing with incentive spirometry is an integral part of the clinical management and health maintenance of abdominal surgical patients . Incentive spirometry known to prevent postoperative pulmonary complications ,enhancing patients recovery ,keep lungs healthy and improve quality of life after abdominal surgery. Breathing pattern can be changed causing serious postoperative pulmonary complications following abdominal surgery. Incentive spirometry improving impaired breathing pattern following abdominal surgery. Aim: To assess the effect of using incentive spirometry on postoperative breathing pattern among abdominal surgical patients. Setting: The study was carried out at inpatient surgical departments in the following hospitals(King Faisal Hospital, King Abdulaziz Hospital ,Hera General Hospital in Makkah).Design: A quantitative quasi experimental design was conducted.

Tools :interview questionnaire and breathing pattern clinical assessment checklist. Results: The study findings revealed that, there is a noticeable improvement were observed from the first two days in the study group in relation to breathing patterns characteristics and vital signs with a recognizable significance differences between the two groups, whereas no significance differences between the two groups at third day postoperatively. Conclusion: Incentive spirometer use after abdominal surgery appear to be effective. As promoting greater diaphragmatic mobility, preventing postoperative pulmonary complications through maintaining normal breathing pattern, lung expansion and removal of retained secretions.
