Article Synopsis
- Many studies focus on surgical techniques and medications, but there is a lack of research on the role of rehabilitation in reducing respiratory complications during the pre and postoperative phases of surgery.
- This study aimed to evaluate respiratory muscle strength and the incidence of pulmonary complications in patients undergoing hepatectomy, comparing those who received inspiratory muscle training to a control group.
- Out of 76 eligible subjects, 41 completed the study; results showed no respiratory complications in the training group while the control group had three, indicating that inspiratory muscle training may significantly enhance postoperative outcomes.
