Overview

Prospective observational study aims to assess gamified incentive spirometry in trauma patients, highlighting feasibility and adherence.

Key Points

  • Gamified incentive spirometry shows potential for improving patient adherence in trauma patients, enhancing recovery dynamics.
  • Primary endpoints include feasibility of enrolling 20 patients and participation in at least one gamified session during hospitalization.
  • This prospective observational study involves adult trauma patients with rib fractures in intensive care, evaluating engagement and safety.
  • Incorporating gaming elements in respiratory therapy could provide further benefits, suggesting a novel approach to enhance treatment compliance.
