Method of measurement: Measurement using arterial blood gas test results.;• Determination and comparison of mean respiratory volume using incentive spirometry in the intervention and control groups, before, three days and six days after surgery. Timepoint: Before surgery and 3 days later and 6 days later. Method of measurement: Based on the volume determined by the incentive spirometer.;Determination of clinical and radiographic symptoms of pneumonia and atelectasis in the intervention group compared with the control group before, three days and six days after surgery. Timepoint: Before surgery and 3 days later and 6 days later. Method of measurement: Based on clinical examination and chest x-ray.;Determining and comparing the mean duration of intubation and hospitalization time in the intensive care unit and hospitalization in the intervention and control groups.
