Study Groups

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

Inspiratory Muscle Training-Rehabilitation

Patients will start the IMT-R, following their consent and within 2 weeks of their scheduled surgery: 10 sessions lasting about 90 minutes. Participants who completed their initial IMT greater than 2 weeks prior to surgery will have an additional visit prior to surgery. Participants will receive a Participant Manual demonstrating and explaining the rehabilitation process. Participants will also receive a log for recording their efforts and notes. A DVD of the rehabilitation is available to the participant. Participants will complete questionnaires at baseline and 3 months.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Inspiratory Muscle Training-Rehabilitation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The training will include the following components:

1. Breathing Awareness
2. Upper and Lower Extremity Exercise.
3. Instructions for Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) performed using the PFlex valve
4. Practice at home

Questionnaires

Intervention Type OTHER

Patient quality of life will be measured using patient-reported outcomes measurement information system (PROMIS) global items. Patients will also complete the Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire (CRQ) and the Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (MCR).
