Brief summary
The main endpoint is physiological rehabilitation after VATS-L under early mobilization. The secondary endpoints are exploring the effect of early mobilization on postoperative physiology. Investigators hypothesis that early mobilization is clearly advantaged to advance the physiological recovery.
Interventions
BEHAVIORALEarly mobilization
Mobilization as soon as patients can, which is not limited on walking

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Postoperative forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) | Through study completion, an average of 3 days | FEV1 is the amount of air you can force from your lungs in one second. Participants will be examed via spirometer. |
| Postoperative arterial oxygen saturation. | Through study completion, an average of 3 days | Oxygen saturation is the fraction of oxygen-saturated hemoglobin relative to total hemoglobin (unsaturated + saturated) in the blood. Participants will be tested via oximeter. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| length of stay in hospital | Through study completion, an average of 3 days | — |
| The quantization of activity counts | Through study completion, an average of 3 days | — |
| Postoperative complications | up to 30 days | Pneumothorax, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumonia, empyema, bleeding, pulmonary embolism, prolong air leakage, re-intervention, re-surgery and re-admission will be recording specifically. |
| Duration of chest tube | Through study completion, an average of 2 days | — |
| The quantization of pain | Through study completion, an average of 3 days | The numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (excruciating pain) is used to score postoperative pain. |
