Reminder-enhanced Incentive Spirometry Evaluation

The purpose of this study is to test whether automatic reminders with a light and a soft sound help patients improve deep breathing exercises after surgery. These breathing exercises are routinely done with the help of a plastic device that you attach to your mouth and you take a deep breath. These exercises are routinely recommended after major surgery to improve the oxygen level in your blood and reduce other respiratory problems.
