Effect of AI-Assisted Respiratory Training on Pain, Fatigue and Respiratory Parameters in Patients After Open Heart Surgery

22 de junio de 2026 actualizado por: Yaren Yurdakul, Kocaeli University

The Effect of Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Respiratory Training on Pain, Fatigue and Respiratory Parameters in Patients After Open Heart Surgery

This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effect of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted respiratory training on fatigue, pain, and respiratory parameters in patients after open heart surgery.

Descripción general del estudio

Descripción detallada

Open heart surgery and related procedures (such as sternotomy, cardiopulmonary bypass, and chest tubes) can negatively affect pulmonary functions and cause postoperative pain, fatigue, and limited respiratory muscle function. While standard care involves respiratory exercises, there is insufficient data regarding the combination of upper extremity Range of Motion (ROM) exercises with deep breathing. This study will utilize AI-generated educational videos, created using tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Adobe Firefly, to guide patients in performing these exercises safely and correctly. Participants will be randomized into three groups: a Rhythmic Breathing group, a Range of Motion-Deep Breathing (ROM-DB) group, and a Control group. The interventions will be applied for three consecutive days. The study will evaluate outcomes including respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, heart rate, pain levels, fatigue, dyspnea, and chest tube drainage volume.

Armas e Intervenciones

Grupo de participantes/brazo
Intervención / Tratamiento
Experimental: Rhythmic Breathing Group
Patients will watch an AI-generated video via tablet and simultaneously perform a 3x3x3 rhythmic breathing exercise, which consists of inhaling for 3 seconds, holding the breath for 3 seconds, and exhaling for 3 seconds. The exercise will be repeated 5 times per session, once a day, for 3 days.
Patients in this group will watch an artificial intelligence-generated educational video on a tablet. Following the visual and auditory instructions in the video, they will perform a rhythmic breathing exercise consisting of inhaling for 3 seconds, holding the breath for 3 seconds, and exhaling for 3 seconds. The exercise will be performed for 5 repetitions, once a day, for 3 consecutive days under the supervision of the researcher.
Experimental: Range of Motion-Deep Breathing (ROM-DN) Group
Patients will watch an AI-generated video via tablet and simultaneously perform upper extremity Range of Motion (ROM) exercises combined with deep breathing. The exercise consists of 5 sets of controlled inspiration and expiration synchronized with arm abduction and adduction. This will be applied once a day for 3 days.
Patients in this group will watch an artificial intelligence-generated educational video on a tablet. They will perform upper extremity range of motion (abduction and adduction) exercises synchronized with deep inspiration and expiration. This exercise will be performed for 5 repetitions, once a day, for 3 consecutive days under the supervision of the researcher.
Sin intervención: Control Group
Patients in this group will not receive the study-specific video exercises. They will be monitored under the clinic's standard routine care protocol, which includes standard breathing exercises and the use of an incentive spirometer (triflo).

Medidas de resultado primarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Change in Respiratory Rate
Periodo de tiempo: Evaluated at baseline (before intervention), and Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 (measured both before and 5 minutes after the exercise session).
Measured continuously as breaths per minute while the patient is at rest.
Evaluated at baseline (before intervention), and Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 (measured both before and 5 minutes after the exercise session).
Change in Oxygen Saturation (SpO2)
Periodo de tiempo: Evaluated at baseline, and Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 (measured both before and 5 minutes after the exercise session).
Measured as a percentage (%) using a noninvasive pulse oximeter
Evaluated at baseline, and Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 (measured both before and 5 minutes after the exercise session).
Change in Heart Rate
Periodo de tiempo: Evaluated at baseline, and Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 (measured both before and 5 minutes after the exercise session).
Measured as beats per minute at rest using a noninvasive patient monitor.
