High Risk for Thoracotomy but not Thoracoscopic Lobectomy
2017, Annals of Thoracic SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Thus, we have shown that this group of patients can have the same chance of cure with the same overall survival as SR patients. Although ppoFEV1% and ppoDlco% are well-established predictors of outcome, other factors may be considered, including age, the Thoracic Revised Cardiac Risk Index for thoracic surgical procedures, and exercise oximetry [31–36]. The ACOSOG Z4032 inclusion criteria were used in this study because they are currently accepted criteria for predicting patients at increased risk, although evaluating the exact factors that predict higher complications rates may be the focus of future studies.

2013, ChestCitation Excerpt :Similar nonunivocal findings were reported by using other forms of exercise. Three studies176,187,188 used stair climbing as exercise tests and found that exercise oxygen desaturation was associated with increased risk of complications, such as postoperative respiratory failure, need for ICU admission, prolonged hospital stay, home oxygen requirement, and mortality. On the other hand, Varela and colleagues189 did not find an association between oxygen desaturation below 90% during standardized incremental cycle-ergometry and postoperative cardiopulmonary morbidity.

2010, Surgical Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :There is substantial evidence that the perioperative risks of resection are related to the absolute predicted postoperative FEV1,15,31,33,34 and the postoperative FEV1 expressed as percent predicted.1,15,34,35 An inverse relationship between exercise capacity and postoperative complications has been demonstrated in several studies using both simple exercise tests, such as 6-minute walks, stair climbs, and formal cardiopulmonary exercise test.1,15,36–40 Stair climbing is an easy and rapid way to assess exercise capacity and cardiopulmonary reserve.
