Lung Function Tests Before Surgery to Predict Recovery
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study measures your lung function and physical fitness before surgery to see if these tests can predict how quickly you'll recover. The researchers want to understand which patients might have an easier or harder recovery after their operation.
