Study Summary

To validate a new method for assessing perioperative risk in the cancer patient undergoing major cancer surgery. In this proposed study researchers will: 1. Measure preoperative energy reserve capacity (fitness) 2. Determine if postoperative morbidity is a function of perioperative cardiopulmonary gas exchange metabolism

Primary Outcome

Measure preoperative energy reserve capacity (fitness) using perioperative energy dynamics where fitness is defined by gas exchange data during cardiopulmonary exercise testing as method of assessing perioperative risk

Interventions

  • OTHER Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET)

Study Locations (1)

Texas

  • University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center - Houston
