Objectives:
Since postoperative complications, defined as Clavien-Dindo grade ≥II, correlate with long-term survival after lung resection surgery in patients with primary lung cancer, identification of intraoperative risk factors for postoperative complications is crucial for better perioperative management. In the present study, we investigated the possible association between intraoperative variables for use in anaesthetic management and Clavien-Dindo grade ≥II.
Methods:
In this multi-institutional observational study, consecutive adult patients undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery for primary lung cancer under general anaesthesia from March 2019 to April 2021 were enrolled. All patients were divided into 2 groups with Clavien-Dindo grade
Results:
After univariable analysis between patients with Clavien-Dindo grade
Conclusions:
Higher mean NR, as intraoperative variables for use in anaesthetic management, is associated with the higher incidence of postoperative complications after primary lung cancer surgery.
