The Fowler's position is used with residents who have Heart disease to relieve symptoms such as dyspnea (shortness of breath) and improve respiratory function. By elevating the upper body, this position facilitates better lung expansion and reduces pressure on the diaphragm, making it easier for the resident to breathe. Additionally, it can help promote better circulation and reduce heart workload.
