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:

Journal ArticleDOI
Minimizing postoperative pulmonary complications in thoracic surgery patients.
TL;DR: Quantification and optimization of perioperative risk factors focusing on anesthesia-related strategies to reduce postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after lung and esophageal surgery and the main anesthesiological strategies to reducing PPCs after thoracic surgery are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of breathing exercises in subjects with lung cancer undergoing surgical resection: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: Breathing exercises could improve lung function, decrease the incidence of PPCs and LOS in a sample of lung cancer patients undergoing pulmonary surgery, and suggests that breathing exercises should be considered as a respiratory rehabilitation programme for lung cancer Patients undergoing lung surgery in clinical practice.

Early lung cancer detection by low-dose CT screening: therapeutic implications.
TL;DR: There is too limited evidence for the value of ablative techniques in curative treatment of early stage NSCLC, therefore, these therapies should only be used in expert centers for selected patients in clinical studies.

Haruaki Hino,Tomohiro Murakawa,Junji Ichinose,Kazuhiro Nagayama,Jun-ichi Nitadori,Masaki Anraku,Jun Nakajima +6 more
TL;DR: Gender and histology should be taken into account in preoperative evaluation of indication for lung cancer in octogenarians and male gender and non-adenocarcinoma histology were significant risk factors for poor prognosis.

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: 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.
