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
Exercise training undertaken by people within 12 months of lung resection for non-small cell lung cancer.
TL;DR: It is suggested that exercise training may potentially increase the exercise capacity of people following lung resection for NSCLC and this systematic review emphasises the need for larger RCTs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced recovery pathway versus standard care in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy.
TL;DR: No benefit conferred by the enhanced recovery program on outcomes such as cardiopulmonary complications, 30‐ and 90‐day mortality, length of stay, and readmissions is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thoracoscopic lobectomy is associated with acceptable morbidity and mortality in patients with predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 second or diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide less than 40% of normal.
TL;DR: V VATS lobectomy can be performed with acceptable rates of morbidity and mortality in patients with reduced ppoFEV1% or ppoDLCO% values < 40%, according to the Society of Thoracic Surgeons GeneralThoracic database.

Preoperative exercise therapy in lung surgery patients: A systematic review.
Sjaak Pouwels,Jeroen Fiddelaers,Joep A.W. Teijink,Joost F. ter Woorst,Jan Siebenga,Frank W.J.M. Smeenk +5 more
TL;DR: A systematic review summarises the effects of preoperative exercise therapy (PET) in patients scheduled for lung surgery on aerobic capacity, physical fitness, postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, quality of life and recovery as discussed by the authors.

A systematic review of rehabilitation and exercise recommendations in oncology guidelines
Nicole L. Stout,Nicole L. Stout,Daniel Santa Mina,Daniel Santa Mina,Kathleen Doyle Lyons,Kathleen Doyle Lyons,Karen Robb,Julie K. Silver +7 more
TL;DR: Findings identify guidelines that recommend rehabilitation services across many cancer types and for various consequences of cancer treatment signifying that rehabilitation is a recognized component of oncology care, at odds with clinical reports of low rehabilitation utilization rates suggesting that guideline recommendations may be overlooked.

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.

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

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.
