Brief Title: The Association Between Preoperative CPEX and Postoperative Morbidity Following Oesophagectomy
Official Title: The Association Between Preoperative Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test Variables and Short-term Postoperative Morbidity Following Oesophagectomy: a Hospital-based Cohort Study
Study ID: NCT03216694
Brief Summary: A retrospective hospital-based cohort study of the association between preoperative cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPEX) variables and short-term postoperative morbidity following oesophagectomy.
Detailed Description: The aim of this study is to examine the correlations between preoperative CPEX variables (VO2max and Anaerobic Threshold) and 30 day postoperative all cause morbidity in a sample large enough to allow (should significant associations exist) calculation of a threshold value. Secondary aims are to examine associations between the VO2max, AT and cardiopulmonary, non-cardiopulmonary complications as well as specific complications (atrial fibrillation, pneumonia, and anastomotic leak) as well as 30 and 90 day mortality.
