Summary

Lung cancer, tracheal and bronchial cancers have long been the leading cause of cancer mortality in Taiwan. According to statistics, about 40% of newly diagnosed lung cancers are treated with surgery as the primary treatment. Although early surgery improves survival rates, most patients experience significant decreases in lung function, and physical function after surgery, which affects their quality of life.

Recent studies have found that preoperative and postoperative lung rehabilitation exercises play an increasingly important role in lung cancer care. In Taiwan, postoperative interventions for lung cancer have shown significant benefits, but there is a lack of evidence on the effectiveness of preoperative rehabilitation programs. To understand the effectiveness of the preoperative pulmonary rehabilitation program, a preoperative home rehabilitation program was designed to compare the efficacy of preoperative pulmonary rehabilitation in the current lung cancer care of patients undergoing lung neoplasm surgery.

Conditions

  • Lung Neoplasm

Interventions

OTHER

Preoperative and postoperative pulmonary rehabilitation exercise

Besides receiving preoperative thoracic surgery health education manuals and postoperative regular pulmonary rehabilitation exercises, they also receive exercises originally tailored for pulmonary rehabilitation, including upper-body resistance exercise, lower-body resistance exercise, aerobic exercise, and respiratory muscle training for 4-7 days before surgery. In addition, a communication app group will be set up and an exercise diary will be provided.
