About this trial
The purpose of breathing exercises or the use of assistive devices is to provide deep breathing after surgery and to obtain a normal breathing pattern. The purpose of choosing the method to be applied is to obtain the best result. The results of the few studies conducted on this subject are contradictory and insufficient. In this context, the purpose of this study is to compare the effects of using only triflow and using triflow together with deep breathing and cough exercises on postoperative respiratory functions in patients who underwent simultaneous tricuspid valve surgery for mitral valve.

Treatments tested in this trial
triflow application
Other interventionAfter we have exhaled, we will try to hold the balls up as long as possible by pulling them inward with all our strength. After repeating this five times, we will turn them over.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes

The Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
VAS is a one-dimensional scale used to measure subjective parameters. It consists of a 10-cm- long line drawn vertically or horizontally. At either end of this line are the two extreme descriptive words of the subjective category (0 = "no pain at all", 10 = worst/unbearable pain"). The patient is asked to indicate the point which matches his/her situation by placing a dot or drawing a line on this 10-cm-long line. It has been widely accepted in the world literature as a valid and reliable measurement tool in the evaluation of postoperative acute pain intensity.
