Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Thirty-one adults were randomly assigned to control and chest physiotherapy groups. Spirometry, pulse oximetry and anamneses were performed before (pre-operative) and in the second post-operative day. Chest physiotherapy group received treatment at the post-anesthesia unit care and control group did not. Chest physiotherapy improved oxygen-hemoglobin saturation in elective post-operative abdominal surgeries.
