Objective: Mobilization takes an important place in providing postoperative pulmonary rehabilitation and is accepted as an effective factor in accelerating the recovery process and improving physical and mental health. This study aims to determine the effect of postoperative mobilization with a pedometer on pulmonary functions and length of postoperative hospital stay in patients undergoing lung resection. Material and Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with the participation of 52 patients in a thoracic surgery clinic of a university hospital . The 'patient identification form' and the 'patient results evaluation form' were used to collect the data. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 22.0. Shapiro-Wilk test was used to test the compatibility of the data to normal distribution. The Spearman correlation analysis was used in analyzing the data. Result: It was revealed that the total step count and walking distance did not affect the postoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and FEV1/FVC values (p>0.05). A weak negative correlation was determined between total step count and the length of postoperative hospital stay (p<0.05). It was found that 84.6% of the patients were satisfied/very satisfied with the use of a pedometer. Conclusion: The study demonstrated that the increase in the step count was not effective on pulmonary functions in the early period but shortened the length of postoperative hospital stay. We recommend the use of a pedometer after lung resections since it standardizes the mobilization measurement, promotes mobilization, and shortens the length of hospital stay owing to its contributions to pulmonary physiotherapy.

Amaç: Mobilizasyon; postoperatif pulmoner rehabilitasyonun sağlanmasında önemli bir yer tutmakta, derlenme sürecinin hızlandırılmasında ve fiziksel ve mental sağlığın geliştirilmesinde etkin bir faktör olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, akciğer rezeksiyonu uygulanan hastalarda pedometre ile postoperatif mobilizasyonun pulmoner fonksiyon, postoperatif yatış süresi üzerine etkisini belirlemek ve ikincil olarak pedometre kullanımının hasta memnuniyetine etkisini değerlendirmektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipteki bu araştırma bir üniversite hastanesinin göğüs cerrahi kliniğinde yatarak tedavi edilen 52 hastanın katılımıyla gerçekleştirildi. Verileri toplamak için 'hasta tanıtım formu' ve 'hasta sonuçları değerlendirme formu' kullanıldı. Veriler, IBM SPSS Statistics 22.0 kullanılarak analiz edildi. Verilerin normal dağılıma uygunluğunu test etmek için Shapiro-Wilk testi kullanıldı. Verilerin analizinde Spearman korelasyon analizi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Toplam adım sayısı ve yürüme mesafesinin postoperatif birinci saniyedeki zorlu ekspiratuar volüm [forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)], zorlu vital kapasite [forced vital capacity (FVC)] ve FEV1/FVC değerlerini etkilemediği belirlendi (p>0,05). Toplam adım sayısı ile ameliyat sonrası hastanede kalış süresi arasında zayıfbir negatif korelasyon belirlendi (p<0,05). Hastaların %84,6'sının pedometre kullanımından memnun/çok memnun kaldığı bulundu. Sonuç: Araştırma, adım sayısındaki artışın erken dönemde solunum fonksiyonları üzerine etkili olmadığını, ancak ameliyat sonrası hastanede kalış süresini kısalttığını göstermiştir. Pulmoner fizyoterapiye katkıları nedeniyle mobilizasyon ölçümünü standardize etmesi, mobilizasyonu teşvik etmesi ve hastanede kalış süresini kısaltması nedeniyle akciğer rezeksiyonlarından sonra pedometre kullanılmasını öneriyoruz.
