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.About:

TL;DR: Preoperative 6MWD was significantly associated with postoperative pneumonia in patients who underwent lung resection for malignancies and blood loss during surgery, according to a logistic model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exercise training as part of lung cancer therapy
TL;DR: There is now substantial evidence that exercise training is safe, feasible and effective at improving several outcomes in people with lung cancer, especially in those with NSCLC.

Preoperative evaluation of the patient with lung cancer being considered for lung resection.
Humberto Choi,Peter J. Mazzone +1 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the general approach to evaluating the cardiopulmonary fitness of a patient with lung cancer being considered for lung resection and suggests measures of exercise performance can help to further risk stratify patients.

Gallium-68 perfusion positron emission tomography/computed tomography to assess pulmonary function in lung cancer patients undergoing surgery
Pierre-Yves Le Roux,Tracy L. Leong,Stephen Barnett,Stephen Barnett,Rodney J. Hicks,Rodney J. Hicks,Jason Callahan,Peter Eu,Renee Manser,Renee Manser,Michael S Hofman,Michael S Hofman +11 more
TL;DR: While anatomic estimation provides “fixed” results, split lobar functions computed with Q PET/CT vary widely, reflecting the intra and inter-individual variability of regional lung function.

Minimally Invasive Lobectomy Is Associated With Lower Noncancer-specific Mortality in Elderly Patients: A Propensity Score Matched Competing Risks Analysis.
Boris Hristov,Takashi Eguchi,Takashi Eguchi,Sarina Bains,Joe Dycoco,Kay See Tan,James M. Isbell,Bernard J. Park,David R. Jones,Prasad S. Adusumilli +9 more
TL;DR: In a propensity score-matched cohort, multivariable analysis has indicated that lobectomy performed by MIS is associated with lower incidence of noncancer-specific mortality compared with lobectomy performing by open thoracotomy in elderly patients with NSCLC.

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.

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.

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.
