Background: Pleural effusion is one of the commonly seen respiratory conditions in India with approximately 1 million people being diagnosed each year. Twenty to forty percent of hospitalized patients with bacterial pneumonia develop pleural effusion. In India unlike western countries, tuberculosis pleura effusion is common. The pleural cavity is involved in approximately 5% of all patients with tuberculosis. Since there was no literature regarding the effectiveness chest mobility exercise with staked breathing or chest mobility exercises with incentive spirometery in pleural effusion. There was a need to find out as to which approach are the best ones to implement. Objective: To compare the efficacy of chest mobility exercise with stacked breathing versus chest mobility exercise with incentive spirometery on chest expansion in patients with pleural effusion.  Materials and Method: 20 patients with pleural effusion were selected by easy sampling and randomly assigned into two groups (10 patients each groups). Group A received chest mobility exercises and intensive spirometery and group B received chest mobility exercises and stacked breathing. Both groups were instructed to perform the intervention 3 time per day, 8 to 10 time per session for one week. Chest expansion was measured by thoracic flow cytometry before and after one week of intervention.  Result: In group A chest expansion increase from 2.68 to 2.87 which was statistically significant (P value &lt; 0.0023). In Group B the chest expansion increases from 2.94 to 3.09 which was not statistically significant (P value &lt; 0.216). Conclusion: It was concluded from the result that both chest mobility exercises with intensive spirometery and chest mobility exercise with stacked breathing are equally effective in improving the chest expansion in subject with pleural effusion. KEY WORDS: Pleural effusion, Chest mobility exercises, Incentive Spirometry, Stacked breathing, Thoracic flow cytometry.
