This study tests whether artificial intelligence-assisted breathing exercises can reduce pain, fatigue, and improve breathing in 111 patients recovering from open heart surgery. Participants will follow an AI-generated video to perform rhythmic breathing for three days. Researchers will measure changes in pain, fatigue, oxygen levels, and breathing rate.
