Abstract

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of short term Preoperative Respiratory Rehabili-tation (PRR) on the changes of respiratory functions and clinical conditions in patients with ma-lignant lung cancer lesion and reduced respiratory functions, with high risk to develop postop-erative pulmonary complications (PPCs). A total of 15 patients were treated with PRR protocol. The rehabilitation programme was concluded by all patients. They showed a statistically signifi-cant improvement of lung functionality Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) (p=0,004), Forced Expira-tion Value in the first second (FEV1) (p<0,001) and walking distance (p<0,001). In addition, there was a significant enhancement of Partial Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) (p=0,002), Hart Rate (HR) (p=0,002) and Borg Dyspnoea Scale values (p=0,003) indicate a better cardiorespiratory functionality. In conclusion a short feasible PRR is suitable in patients’ candidate to thoracic surgery.
