Purpose of the study: The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of short-term respiratory reserve therapy in patients with impaired respiratory function who are about to undergo surgical treatment for lung cancer.
Materials and Methods: The study included 18 patients diagnosed with moderate COPD in remission from 50 to 72 years old (17 men and 1 woman aged 60 years). The diagnosis was morphologically verified as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients were selected to be functionally inoperable, despite a high risk of postoperative complications due to the development of respiratory failure, but suitable for surgical lung resection, based on the stage of the disease. Patients were offered a 2-week course of preoperative rehabilitation: walking more than 1 km per day, breathing exercises and inhalation therapy. Spirometry data: FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in 1 second), FVC (functional vital capacity), six-minute walking distance, maximum inspiratory and expiratory volumes. Preoperative and postoperative spirometry was assessed.
Results: After preoperative pulmonary rehabilitation, there was a marked improvement in spirometry, air conduction (p<0.001), maximum inspiratory volume (12 cm H2O, p<0.001), 6-minute walk distance (53 m, p<0.001), forced vital lung capacity (p<0.001), predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (%) (p=0.001), forced expiratory volume in one second = 150 ml, p = 0.001, Δ maximum forced expiratory volume in one second: 650 ml ) and predicted maximum oxygen uptake (p<0.001). At the end of the rehabilitation course, 61% of patients (n = 11) evaluated by surgeons could be operated on.
Thus, it is advisable to send patients to rehabilitation before surgery before making a decision about the inoperability of the patient.
