Brief summary

Preoperative evaluation of nutritional status in geriatric patients with lung cancer and implementation of these practices in elective patients are very important in terms of reducing postoperative complications and accelerating hospital discharge. For this purpose, many nutritional assessments and measurements are used. Our aim in this study was to evaluate the relationship between preoperative nutritional status and postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing thoracic surgery for geriatric lung cancer.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
FFMI - Fat-Free Mass Index	24 hours	FFMI is an abbreviation for lean mass index. It defines the amount of your muscle mass relative to height and weight. The FFMI is part of the well-known and similar BMI family of body indexes. The effect of FFMI values on postoperative patient stay, intensive care unit stay, complications and postoperative mobilization time in lung cancer patients will be evaluated. Each patient will be evaluated by measuring the preoperative FFMI value 24 hours before.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
BMI (Body Mass Index)	24 hours	BMI is a measurement of a person's leanness or corpulence based on their height and weight, and is intended to quantify tissue mass. The effect of BMI values on postoperative patient stay, intensive care unit stay, complications and postoperative mobilization time in lung cancer patients will be evaluated. Each patient will be evaluated by measuring the preoperative BMI value 24 hours before.
