Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Pulmonary complications	Within 30 days after surgery	Incidence of pneumonia and atelectasis

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
The change of quality of life	Before surgery(baseline), and 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60 months after surgery	The change of quality of life is measured using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ) core30 (C30). The quality of life scale is transformed into a score 0 to 100, derived by 4-point Likert scale. A higher score represents a higher level of quality of life.
The change of symptom	Before surgery(baseline), and 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60 months after surgery	The change of symptoms is measured using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ) oesophageal cancer module (OES18). The symptom scale is transformed into a score 0 to 100, derived by 4-point Likert scale. A higher score represents a higher level of symptom.
