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:

Lung cancer risks, beliefs and healthcare access among the underprivileged.
Jean-François Morère,Jérôme Viguier,Chantal Touboul,Xavier Pivot,Jean-Yves Blay,Yvan Coscas,Christine Lhomel,François Eisinger +7 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the potential links between vulnerable social status, exposure to lung cancer risk factors and access to healthcare to highlight ways to improve lung cancer control in this population found them to have more risk factors for cancer.

Preoperative predictive factors for intensive care unit admission after pulmonary resection
Liana Pinheiro,Ilka Lopes Santoro,João Aléssio Juliano Perfeito,Meyer Izbicki,Roberta Pulcheri Ramos,Sonia Maria Faresin +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a prospective observational cohort study of 120 patients undergoing elective pulmonary resection between July of 2009 and April of 2012 was conducted to determine whether the use of a set of preoperative variables can predict the need for postoperative ICU admission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for impaired lung function after pulmonary metastasectomy: a prospective observational study of 117 cases
Stefan Welter,Danjouma Cheufou,Christian Ketscher,Kaid Darwiche,Frank Maletzki,Georgios Stamatis +5 more
TL;DR: A pulmonary metastasectomy leads to a significant loss of pulmonary function after 3 months in an average patient collective, and the most important factors for deteriorating lung function are a bilateral operation and postoperative chemotherapy.

Lung cancer resection and postoperative outcomes in COPD: A single-center experience.
Emma Roy,Justine Rheault,Marc-Antoine Pigeon,Paula A. Ugalde,Christine Racine,Serge Simard,Gabriel Chouinard,Alexandre Lippens,Yves Lacasse,François Maltais +9 more
TL;DR: Patients with COPD undergoing lung cancer surgery were at higher risk of postoperative complications than patients with normal respiratory function but the procedure was considered safe and the presence of COPD itself did not influence long-term survival.

Recommendations from the Italian intersociety consensus on Perioperative Anesthesia Care in Thoracic surgery (PACTS) part 1: preadmission and preoperative care.
Federico Piccioni,Andrea Droghetti,Alessandro Bertani,Cecilia Coccia,Antonio Corcione,Angelo Corsico,Roberto Crisci,Carlo Curcio,Carlo Del Naja,Paolo Feltracco,Diego Fontana,Alessandro Gonfiotti,Camillo Lopez,Domenico Massullo,Mario Nosotti,Riccardo Ragazzi,Marco Rispoli,Stefano Romagnoli,Raffaele Scala,Luigia Scudeller,Marco Taurchini,Silvia Tognella,Marzia Umari,Franco Valenza,Flavia Petrini +24 more
TL;DR: Recommendations for preoperative care focus on risk assessment, patient preparation (prehabilitation), and the choice of procedure (open thoracotomy vs. video-assisted thoracic surgery).

Standardisation of spirometry
Martin R. Miller,John L. Hankinson,Vito Brusasco,Felip Burgos,Richard Casaburi,Allan L. Coates,Robert O. Crapo,Paul L. Enright,C.P.M. van der Grinten,P. Gustafsson,R. Jensen,D.C. Johnson,Neil R. MacIntyre,Roy T. McKay,Daniel Navajas,O. F. Pedersen,Riccardo Pellegrino,Giovanni Viegi,J. Wanger +18 more
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
John D. Birkmeyer,Andrea E. Siewers,Emily Finlayson,Therese A. Stukel,F. Lee Lucas,Ida Batista,H. Gilbert Welch,David E. Wennberg +7 more
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
Thomas H. Lee,Edward R. Marcantonio,Carol M. Mangione,Eric J. Thomas,Carisi Anne Polanczyk,E. F. Cook,D. J. Sugarbaker,M. C. Donaldson,Robert Poss,Kalon K.L. Ho,L. E. Ludwig,A. Pedan,Lee Goldman +12 more
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.
