Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study was to compare the oxygenation index (OI), dyspnea, and pain scale and evaluate the duration of thoracic drainage and pleural air leaks after lung resection in two groups of patients: chest physiotherapy (CP) patients and combined CP and Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) patients.

Detailed Description

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

In pulmonary resection surgery complications that lead to significant functional losses of the lung parenchyma and alterations in the ventilatory function may trigger retention of secretions, atelectasis, pneumonia and respiratory failure, which prolong the duration of mechanical ventilation and hospitalisation and contribute to the increase in risk of mortality.

In this study the oxygenation index (OI), Borg Scale, pain scale and the presence and duration of thoracic drainage was determined in the immediate postoperative (POi) period and in the first and second postoperative (PO1, PO2) days in 40 patients who underwent elective lung resection.

Similar to Chest Physiotherapy, the preventive application of CPAP in the postoperative period after lung resection in our study also appeared to be a safe technique, which allowed improved oxygenation without increasing air leaks through the thoracic drains.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Cpap

This group joined chest physiotherapy with CPAP via nasal masks for two hours.CPAP was continued from the immediate postoperative day until the second postoperative day, twice a day.

Group Type OTHER

Cpap

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

This study did not involved drugs. The Oxygenation index, Borg Scale, pain scale and the presence and duration of thoracic drainage was determined in the immediate postoperative (POi) period and in the first and second postoperative (PO1, PO2) days in 40 patients who underwent elective lung resection,in two groups of intervention: chest physiotherapy, and associate this with cpap

Chest Physiotherapy

Chest Physiotherapy consisted of bronchial hygiene techniques and pulmonary expansion, in addition to exercises, and received oxygen supplementation to maintain the pulse oxymetry saturations \> 90%.
