  1. Preoperative Pulmonary Function Evaluation in Lung Resection Ri 李佩蓉/王奐之 CR 顏郁軒

  2. Pulmonary Function Test • Preoperative pulmonary evaluation of patients with lung cancer concerns both resectability and operability. • resectability: TNM staging • operability: how much tissue can be safely removed

  3. Commonly Used Parameters • FEV1(Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second) • FVC (Functional Vital Capacity) • FEV1/FVC • MVV (Maximum Voluntary Ventilation) = MBC (Maximum Breathing Capacity) • DLCO (Diffusing Capacity of Carbon Monoxide) • VO2 max (Maximum Oxygen Consumption)

  4. FEV1 • best parameter to predict risk of post-op complications (including death) • ppoFEV1 (predicted postoperative FEV1) Am J of Med (2005) 118, 578–583Chest (2003) 123, 2096-2103Resp Med (2004) 98, 598-605

  5. MVV (MBC) • largest volume breathed voluntarily in 1 min • an estimate of the peak ventilation available to meet physiological demands • represents respiratory muscle strength and correlates with post-op morbidity Am J of Med (2005) 118, 578–583Chest (2003) 123, 2096-2103Resp Med (2004) 98, 598-605

  6. DLCO • independent predictor for risk of post-op complications (including death) • reflects alveolar membrane integrity and pulmonary capillary blood flow • low DLCO implies significant emphysema, and reduced pulmonary capillary vascular bed Am J of Med (2005) 118, 578–583Chest (2003) 123, 2096-2103Resp Med (2004) 98, 598-605

  7. VO2 max (Exercise Test) • exercise capacity (measured as VO2 max) • predictor of post-op complications (including death) • exercise oximetry • stair climbing • shuttle walking • 6-minute walk test • helps to identify high-risk patients who can safely undergo lung resection Am J of Med (2005) 118, 578–583

  8. VO2 max Eugene et al • VO2 max > 1 L/min  little complications Smith et al • VO2 max > 20 ml/kg/min  post-op complications 10% • VO2 max = 15~20 ml/kg/min  post-op complications 66% • VO2 max < 15 ml/kg/min  post-op complications 100% Markos et al • oxygen desaturation during a 12-min walk, ppoDLCO and ppoFEV1 were more reliable predictors of post-op mortality Chest (2003) 123, 2096-2103

  9. Other Parameters • FEF25-75%: highly variable • ABG: hypercapnia (>45 mmHg) • PPP (predicted postoperative product) • product of ppoFEV1 and ppoDLCO Am J of Med (2005) 118, 578–583

  10. Postoperative Lung Function • Pulmonary function is affected by lung resection, extent varies: • pneumonectomy: • FEV1: 34~36%↓ • FVC: 36~40%↓ • VO2 max: 20~28%↓ • lobectomy: • FEV1: 9~17%↓ • FVC: 7~11%↓ • VO2 max: 0~13%↓ Am J of Med (2005) 118, 578–583

  11. Lung Resection • may undergoes up to 3 testing phases: • 1st phase (whole-lung tests): • room-air ABG, simple spirometry, lung volume, (DLCO, exercise test) i. PaCO2 > 45 mmHgii. FEV1 or MVV < 50% predictediii. RV/TLC > 50% • if any combination of the above exists→ proceed to 2nd phase Chapter 49, Miller’s Anesthesiology, 6th Edition

  12. Lung Resection • 2nd phase (single-lung tests): • ventilation/perfusion of each lung • quantitative CT scanning i. ppoFEV1 < 0.85 Lii. > 70% blood flow to the diseased lung • if any of the above exists→ proceed to 3rd phase Chapter 49, Miller’s Anesthesiology, 6th Edition

  13. Prediction of Post-op Lung Function • Methods to predict postoperative pulmonary function: • segment method • radionuclide scanning techniques • quantitative computed tomography

  14. Segment Method • 19 total segments (right 10, left 9) • estimated post-op pulmonary function= (pre-op pulmonary function) * (post-op remaining segments) / 19 • subsegments also being used (total of 42 subsegments) Am J of Med (2005) 118, 578–583

  15. Radionuclide Scanning Techniques • inhaled 133Xe or intravenous 99Tc-labeled macroaggregates • estimation by quantifying the perfusion to a specific area:ppoFEV1 = preoperative FEV1 * % of radioactivity contributed by nonoperated lung Am J of Med (2005) 118, 578–583

  16. Quantitative Computed Tomography • -500~-910 Hounsfield unit is used to estimate functional lung volume • correlates better than radionuclide scanning method AJR (2002) 178, 667–672

  17. Lung Resection • 3rd phase (mimic post-op condition): • temporary balloon occlusion (with or without exercise) → skill-demanding, rarely performed Chapter 49, Miller’s Anesthesiology, 6th Edition Ann Thorac Cardiovasc Surg (2004) 10, 333-339
