Intervención fisioterapéutica en pacientes con lobectomía pulmonar.

Lung lobectomy is one of the most common thoracic surgeries in the world, mainly for lung cancer, but the surgical procedure is also used for other conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), infections, tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, and lung trauma. These conditions are caused by smoking, environmental pollution, infectious factors, and genetics. People who undergo a pulmonary lobectomy experience serious post-operative complication that negatively affect the patient's quality of life, and physiotherapy becomes a fundamental component in the recovery process. The objective of this research was to analyze the benefits of physiotherapy following pulmonary lobectomy through a literature review. The research is documentary, bibliographic, descriptive, inductive, and retrospective in nature, based on a review of scientific databases such as Medline/PubMed, Scopus, and the Web of Science, in accordance with the items proposed by the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro). The search strategy facilitated access to 20 randomized clinical trials published between 2019 and 2025. The studies analyzed showed that physiotherapy in the pre-surgical and post-operative stages improves recovery in patients undergoing lung lobectomy. The findings led to the conclusion that physiotherapy intervention before and after lung resection plays an important role in preventing post-operative complications, reducing hospital stays, and improving respiratory function and quality of life in patients using technology and mobile applications, education, breathing exercises, aerobics, and training of the inspiratory and expiratory muscles.
