Exploring the association between socioeconomic status and cardiopulmonary exercise testing measures: A cohort study based on routinely collected data

These findings add to our understanding of socioeconomic disparities in physiological reserve among surgical patients and may support the need for more holistic approaches to peri-operative care.
