First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study was designed to see if early mobilization and a simple bottle-based breathing device (Bottle-P.E.P.) could improve breathing and physical function in people recovering from heart valve surgery. The trial was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available. It would have included adults aged 25-75 who had valve surgery through a chest incision.
