Preoperative Physiotherapy to Prevent Respiratory Complications
Preoperative physiotherapy of 30 minutes reduced incidences of respiratory complication after elective upper abdominal surgery (HR 0.48, P=0.001) in this multicenter randomized controlled trial. A single educational session with breathing exercise could improve patient outcome in the tens of millions
