Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for patients with stage I-IIIB lung cancer who are planning to have surgery. Taking part involves doing respiratory muscle training before the surgery to help prevent lung problems afterward.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I have been diagnosed with stage I-IIIb lung cancer.
I can speak, read, and understand English.
I am scheduled for surgery for lung cancer.
I am able to follow written and verbal instructions.
I understand that this is a research study and agree to participate.
You may not be able to join if
I have ischemic heart disease or congestive heart failure.
I have significant heart rhythm problems.
I am pregnant or nursing.
I am unwilling or unable to follow the study requirements.
I am considered medically frail by my doctor.

This phase II trial studies how well respiratory muscle training before surgery works in preventing lung complications after surgery in patients with stage I-IIIB lung cancer. Patients with lung cancer who choose to undergo surgical resection often have complications after surgery such as pneumonia, unplanned intubations, difficulty breathing and reduced physical functioning, and increased medical costs and a reduced quality of life. Improving pre-surgical pulmonary health through respiratory muscle training may improve respiratory muscle strength, response to surgery, and quality of life after surgery in patients with lung cancer.
