Abstract Background An evaluation of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) screening and pre-operative pulmonary rehabilitation in reducing postoperative complications and improving fast-track recovery in high-risk patients who undergo resection for lung cancer. Methods Of 342 potential lung cancer cases, 142 high-risk patients were finally divided into two groups: group R (n = 71) underwent an intensive pre-operative pulmonary rehabilitation program (PRP), followed by lobectomy; group S (n = 71) underwent only lobectomy with conventional management. Postoperative complications, average days in hospital, postoperative days in hospital, and cost were analyzed. Results <p>The 142 high-risk patients were screened by smoking history and CPET. Sixty-eight patients had bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) and 47 patients had peak expiratory flow Conclusion Pre-operative screening using CPET is conducive to identifying high-risk patients for lung resection. Pre-operative pulmonary rehabilitation is helpful to reduce postoperative complications and improve fast-track recovery.

Background and objectiveDetection of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is crucial in the management of COPD. The aim of this study was to establish the utility of a community-based lung cancer screening for detecting COPD. MethodsIn Japan, community-based lung cancer screening for residents who are 40 years or older using chest radiography is well established. A screening system in Chiba City, Japan, was used to detect COPD. The criteria to consider COPD at screening included age of 60 years or older, a smoking history and chronic respiratory symptoms. Participants fulfilling these criteria were referred for diagnostic evaluation consisting of pulmonary function testing (PFT) and chest computed tomography (CT). ResultsOf 89100 Chiba City residents who underwent lung cancer screening, 72653 residents were 60 years or older. Among them, 878 (1.0%) were identified with suspected COPD and referred for further evaluation. Of those identified, a total of 567 residents (64.6%, 567/878) underwent further evaluations, and 161 (28.4%) were reported to have COPD, with 38.5% of them requiring COPD treatment. To verify the diagnoses from the secondary evaluation centres, PFT and CT data were collected from 228 study participants, and 24.9% were diagnosed with COPD. CT findings classified according to the Goddard classification revealed that 20.1% of these participants had moderate to severe emphysema. ConclusionsCOPD screening added to a community-based lung cancer screening programme may be effective in the detection of patients with COPD. We investigated the feasibility of detecting COPD using a community-based lung cancer screening programme. Approximately 30% of residents 60 years or older with smoking history and respiratory symptoms were diagnosed with COPD. Half of them had moderate or severe COPD.

目的:探讨围术期静脉给予大剂量盐酸氨溴索注射液对胸腔镜下肺叶切除术后肺癌患者的肺功能、术后并发症、术后住院时间和总住院费用的影响。方法:采用随机对照试验设计,选取中南大学湘雅医院心胸外科2011年5月至2012年5月行胸腔镜下肺叶切除术的肺癌患者60例分为两组:氨溴素处理组(n=30)和空白对照组(n=30)。氨溴素处理组自手术当日至术后3 d静脉给予盐酸氨溴索注射液1 000 mg/d;空白对照组则在相应的时间段静脉给予相同体积的生理盐水。采集并比较两组术前一般资料、术中情况、手术前后的肺功能和血气分析结果、术后早期并发症、机械通气时间、ICU时间、术后住院时间和总住院费用。结果:两组术前一般资料、术中情况具有可比性。氨溴素处理组和空白对照组在手术后,第1秒用力呼气容积占预计值百分比(the percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second,FEV1%)、第1秒用力呼气容积占用力肺活量百分比(the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 second to forced vital capacity,FEV1/FVC%)、一氧化碳弥散量占预计值百分比(the percent predicted diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide,DLCO%)、动脉血氧分压(PaO2)比手术前均有下降;而空白对照组比氨溴素处理组的下降更明显(P0.05)。与空白对照组相比,氨溴素处理组肺部并发症明显减少;术后机械通气时间、ICU时间和术后住院时间明显缩短;总住院费用显著降低(P0.05)。结论:围术期静脉给予接受胸腔镜下肺叶切除术的肺癌患者大剂量盐酸氨溴索注射液,可以改善患者术后肺功能,减少肺部并发症的发生,缩短术后住院时间,降低总住院费用。
