ACBT With Incentive Spirometry Versus High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation After Thoracic Surgery

2026年6月1日 更新者:Riphah International University

Effects of Active Cycle of Breathing Techniques With Incentive Spirometry Versus High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation on Cough, Sputum, Pulmonary Function Test and Patient Satisfaction After Thoracic Surgery

This randomized clinical trial aims to compare the effectiveness of Active Cycle of Breathing Techniques combined with Incentive Spirometry (ACBT + IS) versus High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO) in patients undergoing thoracic surgery. Postoperative pulmonary complications such as reduced lung function, ineffective cough, and sputum retention are common after thoracic procedures and can delay recovery. A total of 42 participants will be randomly allocated into two groups: one receiving ACBT with Incentive Spirometry and the other receiving HFCWO, along with standard postoperative care. Outcomes including cough effectiveness, sputum clearance, pulmonary function tests, and patient satisfaction will be assessed at baseline, postoperative day 3, and day 5. The study aims to determine the more effective airway clearance technique to improve respiratory outcomes and enhance patient recovery following thoracic surgery.

研究概览

详细说明

Postoperative pulmonary complications are common after thoracic surgery due to reduced lung function and impaired secretion clearance. Effective respiratory physiotherapy is essential to improve recovery and prevent complications such as atelectasis and pneumonia.

This randomized clinical trial aims to compare the effectiveness of Active Cycle of Breathing Techniques combined with Incentive Spirometry (ACBT + IS) and High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO) in improving respiratory outcomes. A total of 42 patients undergoing elective thoracic surgery will be randomly assigned to either ACBT + IS or HFCWO, along with standard postoperative care.

Outcomes including cough effectiveness, sputum clearance, pulmonary function (FEV₁, FVC), and patient satisfaction will be assessed at baseline, postoperative day 3, and day 5. The study seeks to identify the more effective airway clearance technique to enhance recovery and reduce postoperative complications.

有源比较器:ACBT with Incentive Spirometry
Participants in this group will receive Active Cycle of Breathing Techniques (ACBT) combined with Incentive Spirometry along with standard postoperative care. The ACBT protocol will include breathing control, thoracic expansion exercises, and forced expiratory techniques (huffing), performed multiple times daily. Incentive spirometry will be used to promote deep breathing and lung expansion. The intervention will begin in the early postoperative period and continue for 5 days.
A structured breathing intervention combining Active Cycle of Breathing Techniques (breathing control, thoracic expansion exercises, and forced expiratory technique) with incentive spirometry to promote lung expansion and secretion clearance. Performed multiple times daily during the early postoperative period.
其他名称:
  • ACBT + IS
实验性的:High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO)
Participants in this group will receive High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation therapy using an oscillatory vest device along with standard postoperative care. The device delivers external chest wall oscillations to mobilize pulmonary secretions. The intervention will start on postoperative day 3 and will be administered twice daily for 5 days.
A mechanical airway clearance technique delivered using an oscillatory vest that produces high-frequency chest wall vibrations to help mobilize and remove pulmonary secretions. The intervention is administered twice daily beginning on postoperative day 3.
其他名称:
  • HFCWO, Oscillatory Vest Therapy
