Different measures of ventilatory efficiency in preoperative cardiopulmonary exercise testing are useful for predicting postoperative complications in abdominal cancer surgery
Both preoperative VE/VCO<sub>2</sub> slope and PetCO<sub>2</sub> could identify subjects with a very high risk of complications following oesophageal resection, with similar prognostic utility. PetCO<sub>2</sub> can be measured with simpler equipment and could therefore be useful when CPET is not available.
