pursed-lip breathing a breathing technique in which air is inhaled slowly through the nose and then exhaled slowly through pursed lips. This type of breathing is often used by patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease to prevent small airway collapse.
What is the difference between breathing and respiration? BREATHING is the mechanical action of getting air in and out of the lungs. RESPIRATION is the chemical reaction that provides the energy that makes the organism function. It occurs in the cells, more precisely in the mitochondria (the powerplant of the cell).
