EP13.01-010 Effect of Perioperative Respiratory Muscle Training with Gamification for Lung Cancer

Abstract

It has already been reported that pre- and postoperative respiratory muscle trainings are effective in preventing perioperative respiratory complications and improving postoperative respiratory function in patients undergoing lobectomy. However, since it is a simple repetitive task, it is extremely difficult to have it continued for a long time. In this study, we developed a new respiratory training application using a tablet game and verified to what extent it is possible to continue respiratory training by applying gamification techniques.
