Brief Summary

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

In a rehabilitation setting, respiratory muscle training with re-expansion techniques in patients following cardio-thoracic surgery represents a consolidated intervention. New devices called RESPILIFT® and RESPIVOl® improve deep inspiration and pulmonary volume with an effect on respiratory muscle performance and perceived dispnoea. The aim of the investigators study is to test the clinical efficacy of RESPILIFT® and RESPIVOl® in patients with a recent history of cardio-thoracic surgery.
