Summary

To test the effect of post operative complications on the health related quality of life (HRQOL) after Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

The HRQOL of patients with early stage NSCLC will be assessed at baseline (before surgery) using 3 different reliable and valid HRQOL questionnaire (SF-36, EQ-5D and QLQ30/13), then at regular intervals in the early post-operative period (2,4,8 and 12 weeks) the HRQOL will be assessed using the same questionnaires to determine the difference between patients with low/no post operative complications to those with high grade post-operative complications.

Post operative complications will be assess while the patients in the hospital on a daily basis using the Clavien classification system for surgical complications.
