Summary

To validate a new method for assessing perioperative risk in the cancer patient undergoing major cancer surgery.

In this proposed study researchers will:

1. Measure preoperative energy reserve capacity (fitness)
2. Determine if postoperative morbidity is a function of perioperative cardiopulmonary gas exchange metabolism
