Abstract
Daily bedside spirometry might be a helpful diagnostic adjunct for early recognition, and hence, timely treatment, of pulmonary infection after open anatomic lung resections. In addition, minimally invasive techniques not only resulted in a lower rate of pulmonary infections but also resulted in faster postoperative recovery of pulmonary function and shorter hospital stay.
