Physiologic evaluation of the patient with lung cancer being considered for resectional surgery: Diagnosis and management of lung cancer, 3rd ed: American College of Chest Physicians evidence-based clinical practice guidelines.

TLDR
A careful preoperative physiologic assessment is useful for identifying those patients at increased risk with standard lung cancer resection and for enabling an informed decision by the patient about the appropriate therapeutic approach to treating his or her lung cancer.

Thoracic Surgery and the Elderly; Is Lobectomy Safe in Octogenarians?

TL;DR: A statewide retrospective registry study of Queensland's Cardiac Outcomes Registry's (QCOR) Thoracic Database examined the influence of age on the safety of Lung Resection (1 January 2016-20 April 2022) as discussed by the authors .

Anesthesia for End-Stage Respiratory Disease

TL;DR: During the preoperative period, regional anesthesia, noninvasive ventilation, and protective ventilation represent the cornerstones of the anesthetic strategy and ECMO and high-flow oxygen are the further perspectives.

Postinduction therapy pulmonary function retesting is necessary before surgical resection for non–small cell lung cancer

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the relationship between post-operative diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) and operative mortality in patients who receive induction therapy for resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Predictive model of postoperative pneumonia after neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy for esophageal cancer.

TL;DR: A predictive model can predict the possibility of postoperative pneumonia in patients with neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy for resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and may facilitate physicians' efforts to reduce the incidence of post surgical pneumonia.

Standardisation of spirometry

TL;DR: This research presents a novel and scalable approach called “Standardation of LUNG FUNCTION TESTing” that combines “situational awareness” and “machine learning” to solve the challenge of integrating nanofiltration into the energy system.

Hospital Volume and Surgical Mortality in the United States

TL;DR: Mortality decreased as volume increased for all 14 types of procedures, but the relative importance of volume varied markedly according to the type of procedure.

Derivation and Prospective Validation of a Simple Index for Prediction of Cardiac Risk of Major Noncardiac Surgery

TL;DR: In stable patients undergoing nonurgent major noncardiac surgery, this index can identify patients at higher risk for complications and may be useful for identification of candidates for further risk stratification with noninvasive technologies or other management strategies.

Standardisation of the single-breath determination of carbon monoxide uptake in the lung

TL;DR: This research presents a novel and scalable approach called “Standardation of LUNG FUNCTION TESTing” that combines “situational awareness” and “machine learning” to solve the challenge of integrating nanofiltration into the energy system.

Effects of extended-release metoprolol succinate in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery (POISE trial): a randomised controlled trial.

TL;DR: The results highlight the risk in assuming a perioperative beta-blocker regimen has benefit without substantial harm, and the importance and need for large randomised trials in theperioperative setting.
