Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
There is an increased flow of patients after decortication surgery to hospitals who suffer from decreased lung volumes so the hospitalization period for them increases which puts an economical burden on health insurance services with a decreased level of quality of life that is the most concern to improve patient status and relieve this burden. So this study aims to improve patient's lung volumes and arterial blood gas parameters which improves patient status through two various forms of breathing exercises.
