Significance of Early Mobilization After VATS-L

Completed

• Conditions: Lung Neoplasm; Physiology; Lung Function; Exercise; Arterial Oxygen Saturation

• Registration Number: NCT04508270
• Lead Sponsor: Rigshospitalet, Denmark

Brief Summary

The main endpoint is physiological rehabilitation after VATS-L under early mobilization. The secondary endpoints are exploring the effect of early mobilization on postoperative physiology.

Investigators hypothesis that early mobilization is clearly advantaged to advance the physiological recovery.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Postoperative forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)	Through study completion, an average of 3 days	FEV1 is the amount of air you can force from your lungs in one second. Participants will be examed via spirometer.
Postoperative arterial oxygen saturation.	Through study completion, an average of 3 days	Oxygen saturation is the fraction of oxygen-saturated hemoglobin relative to total hemoglobin (unsaturated + saturated) in the blood. Participants will be tested via oximeter.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The quantization of activity counts	Through study completion, an average of 3 days
The quantization of pain	Through study completion, an average of 3 days	The numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (excruciating pain) is used to score postoperative pain.
length of stay in hospital	Through study completion, an average of 3 days
Duration of chest tube	Through study completion, an average of 2 days
Postoperative complications	up to 30 days	Pneumothorax, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumonia, empyema, bleeding, pulmonary embolism, prolong air leakage, re-intervention, re-surgery and re-admission will be recording specifically.
