Study Summary
Swallowing difficulty (dysphagia) is a common postoperative complication in patients who undergo cardiac surgical procedures. Postoperative dysphagia in cardiac surgical patients is associated with negative health-related outcomes including increased rates of pneumonia, reintubation, and death as well as increased length of hospital stay and costs of care. This study will examine the safety, feasibility, and impact of preoperative respiratory strength training (RST) on swallowing and associated health-related outcomes in cardiac surgical patients. We hypothesize that preoperative RST will be safe, well-tolerated, and lead to improved swallowing and health-related outcomes in cardiac surgical patients.
