First seen Feb 01, 2026 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This study tests whether adding a hand-held breathing muscle trainer to standard pre-surgery exercise (prehab) helps people with lung cancer have fewer complications and shorter hospital stays after lung removal surgery. About 100 adults with surgically treatable lung cancer will be split into two groups: one gets standard prehab plus the breathing trainer, the other gets standard prehab alone. The goal is to see if stronger breathing muscles lead to better recovery and quality of life.
