Brief summary

Elective spine surgery is associated with a high incidence of perioperative complications, including peri- and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), which occur in nearly 4% of patients. More than 40% of all deaths after elective spine surgery are attributed to PPCs. However, whether it influences risk of other PPCs is unclear.
