Background: Inspiratory muscle training is a targeted strengthening of the inspiratory muscles through the application of resistance during inspiration. Aim of this study: Was to evaluate effect of inspiratory muscle training program on health outcomes among thoracic surgeries patients. Research design: A quasi - experimental research design was utilized to meet the aim of this study. Setting: The study was conducted in Thoracic Surgery Department at Benha University Hospital which consists of 5 rooms, 26 beds. Sample: A purposive sample of 80 adult patients undergoing thoracic surgery who met the inclusion criteria enrolled to this study. Tools of data collection: Three tools were used: Tool I: Structured questionnaire assessment. Tool II: Observational checklist. Tool III: The clinical outcome assessment. Results: There was highly significant positive correlation between total patients’ knowledge and their practice towards thoracic surgery and inspiratory muscle training at pre, post and follow-up < br />implementation of a training program at (P= < 0.01) ,there was highly significant positive correlation between total patients’ knowledge and their practice towards thoracic surgery and inspiratory muscle training and patients outcome at pre, post and follow-up implementation of a training program at (P= < 0.01). Conclusion: Patient’s knowledge and practice were poor at preprogram phase while it had been improved during post program phases (immediate & after 1months) which reflects that training program was effective and had a positive impact on patient’s performance regarding patient status observed as (P value at< 0.01. Recommendation: The study should be replicated on large sample & different hospitals setting in order to detect and generalize the results.
