From the registry
Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Thoracic surgery remains the treatment of choice for patients with early-stage disease; however, postoperative recovery is frequently associated with reduced functional capacity, decreased physical activity levels, pulmonary complications, dyspnea, and impaired quality of life. Early physiotherapy interventions are recommended to minimize these adverse outcomes, although access to postoperative rehabilitation services remains limited in many healthcare settings, including the Andalusian Public Health System. Telerehabilitation has emerged as a promising strategy to improve access to rehabilitation services by delivering therapeutic exercise and clinical follow-up remotely. Previous studies have demonstrated that telerehabilitation is safe, effective, and cost-efficient across different clinical populations. However, evidence regarding its effectiveness in patients recovering from lung cancer surgery remains limited. This single-blind randomized controlled trial aims to compare the effects…
