Brief Summary

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

The literature indicates that postoperative pulmonary complications are seen when pain is not treated effectively after videothoracoscopy surgery (VATS). After surgery, physiotherapy and rehabilitation approaches are applied to prevent complications. Bio-Electro-Magnetic-Energy-Regulation (BEMER) therapy uses low-frequency electromagnetic energy to regulate vasomotion in capillaries and increase microcirculation. BEMER therapy can be applied together with physiotherapy and rehabilitation. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of BEMER application, which is added to the physiotherapy and rehabilitation program applied after videothoracoscopy surgery.
