      Background

      The aim of study was to identify that ventilation-to-carbon dioxide output (VE/V CO2) slope obtained from cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) was an independent prognostic factor of short and long term survival after lobectomy or segmentectomy.The aim of study was to identify that ventilation-to-carbon dioxide output (VE/V CO2) slope obtained from cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) was an independent prognostic factor of short and long term survival after lobectomy or segmentectomy.

      974 patients including lobectomy (n=887) or segmentectomy (n=87) were performed from April 2014 to March 2018. 209 (22%) underwent CPET, and pulmonary function and several clinical factors including age, sex, performance status and comorbidities were retrospectively investigated to identify the prognostic factors with a multivariable Cox regression analysis.

      Among patients with CPET, 95 patients (46%) had VO2max<15 mL/kg/min. Compared to patients with higher VO2max, they had similar cardiopulmonary complication rates (32% vs. 29%, p=0.68) and 90 day mortality (9.5% vs. 6.2%, p=0.43). 172 patients had measured VE/V CO2. The incidence of cardiopulmonary complications in patients with VE/V CO2 slope >40 was 37% (19 of 51) vs. 27% (33 of 121) in those with lower slope values (p=0.19). However, 90-day mortality in patients with high VE/V CO2 slope (n=8) was 3-fold higher (16% vs. 5.0%) compared to those with lower (n=6) values (p=0.03). Cox regression analysis showed that higher VE/V CO2 values were significantly associated with poorer 2-year survival (HR 1.07, 95% CI 1.01-1.13, p=0.009)

      We found VE/V CO2 slope was associated with increased 90-day mortality and poorer 2-year survival in patients submitted to anatomical pulmonary resection for non-small cell lung cancer. These findings may assist the multidisciplinary team in selecting the most appropriate radical treatment in high-risk patients.
