NCT ID NCT07549555
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a simple, drug-free technique: a therapist gently vibrates the chest wall of patients who have a chest tube after thoracic surgery. The goal is to see if this helps clear mucus, improve breathing, and reduce how long the chest tube needs to stay in. About 60 adults who are stable after surgery will take part.
