Inspirometria de incentivo e breath stacking: repercussões sobre a capacidade inspiratória em indivíduos submetidos à cirurgia abdominal

Abstract: Background: Respiratory complications are the main causes of increased morbidity and mortality in individuals who undergo upper abdominal surgery. The effi cacy of physical therapy procedures needs clarifi cation, and it is necessary to know which therapeutic approaches are the best ones to implement. Objective: To compare the inspiratory volume during the breath stacking maneuver with the volume during incentive spirometry, in abdominal surgery patients. Methods: Twelve patients, on their fi rst postoperative… Show more

“…This is consistent with our previous findings when evaluating abdominal surgery patients. (25) As previously described, high inspiratory volume is essential to the effectiveness of cough. Improvements in cough PEF can be achieved when cough is started from the maximal inspiratory volume in normal subjects, in patients with neuromuscular disease, (26) and in postoperative patients.…”

“…(1-4) The Third Brazilian Consensus on Mechanical Ventilation complements these findings by stating that atelectasis occurs in dependent areas immediately after the establishment of general anesthesia. (11) These complications are mainly related to decreased mucociliary clearance, (14) decreased lung volume and alveolar collapse.…”
