ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the effects of a program called Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) on patients undergoing cardiac surgery. IMT consists of breathing exercises that help strengthen the muscles we use to breathe, which can make it easier for patients to recover after surgery. The researchers want to find out if doing these exercises before surgery improves overall health outcomes for patients who will have their hearts operated on.

To be eligible for this study, participants need to be adults who are scheduled for elective cardiac surgery that involves cardiopulmonary bypass—a procedure where blood is rerouted during surgery. Unfortunately, individuals with certain neurological conditions, those needing emergency surgery, or those having surgery without cardiopulmonary bypass cannot participate. If you join the study, you can expect to engage in breathing exercises before your surgery, and the team will monitor your recovery to see how well this training helps.
