What is Lung Resection Suitability Assessment about?

This document discusses assessment of patient suitability for lung resection surgery. It outlines several key factors to consider: 1) Cardiopulmonary fitness including cardiovascular and respiratory function tests to evaluate risk of surgery. 2) Nutritional status and performance measures like weight loss which can indicate disease severity. 3) Pulmonary function test results, with thresholds for lobectomy and pneumonectomy. 4) Cardiopulmonary exercise testing to best assess postoperative risk.
