• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 80 (actual)
• Sponsor: Istanbul University · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The study to be carried out in the Istanbul Faculty of Medicine Department of Anesthesiology was planned as a randomized, prospective study. Patients who will undergo lung resection will be included in the study. Patients were randomized into two groups: Intervention Group includes patients who are rehabilitated preoperatively (prehabilitation), Control Group includes patients who are routinely recommended preoperative exercise, alcohol and smoking cessation. Prehabilitation consists of respiratory muscle exercise and walking is recommended to Intervention Group. Postoperative recovery will be questioned with Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) on the 2nd day and 1st month. The intensive care unit admission, postoperative pulmonary complications and length of hospital stay will be recorded.

Detailed description

The study to be carried out in the Istanbul Faculty of Medicine Department of Anesthesiology was planned as a randomized, prospective study. Patients who will undergo lung resection will be included in the study. Patients will be informed about the study and their written consent will be obtained. Patients who do not give consent will not be included in the study. Routine preoperative evaluation including detailed history (daily physical activity, clinical complaints at rest or exertion, if any) and physical examination will be performed on the patients. Patients were randomized into two groups: Intervention Group includes patients who are rehabilitated preoperatively (prehabilitation), Control Group includes patients who are routinely recommended preoperative exercise, alcohol and smoking cessation. Preoperative exercise, alcohol and smoking cessation are recommended to all patients. Prehabilitation consists of respiratory muscle exercise with inspiratory muscle trainer (two times a day) and walking (5000steps/day) is recommended to Intervention Group. Hospitalized patients are followed up with daily visits, and patients who are at home are followed up by phone call. All patients' induction of anesthesia and maintenance were similar. Postoperative recovery will be questioned with Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) on the 2nd day (as primary outcome) and 1st month. The duration of anesthesia, surgery duration, intensive care unit admission, postoperative pulmonary complications and length of hospital stay will be recorded.
