Pre-operative Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training in Total Joint Surgery (NCT05381818)
Preoperative Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training and Pulmonary Complications After Surgery
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate effects of respiratory strengthening exercises on breathing function, in people who have orthopedic surgery. It is known that breathing function decreases for a few days after surgery. in In this study, we want to see if exercising before surgery strengthens the breathing muscles and improves recovery after surgery.
