Preoperative and Postoperative Incentive Spirometry in Patients Undergoing Major Abdominal Surgery
- Conditions
- Abdominal Surgery
- Registration Number
- NCT04887922
- Lead Sponsor
- Washington University School of Medicine
- Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of incentive spirometry (IS) to improve pulmonary function in the preoperative and postoperative surgical setting. The investigators hypothesize that IS will improve pulmonary function for patients undergoing major abdominal surgery when controlling for protocol compliance. Additionally, the investigators hypothesize that a digital IS device enabled with a text message-based mobile health intervention will improve pulmonary pre-habilitation and rehabilitation, as well as postoperative compliance with the IS device.
