Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Accurate prediction of postoperative morbidity and mortality is essential for optimizing perioperative management in patients undergoing gastrointestinal cancer surgery. This study evaluates the predictive performance of commonly used perioperative risk scoring systems in patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery for malignancy under general anesthesia.

Arms and outcomes
Arms (1)
- label
- Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery Cohort
- description
- Prospective observational group including adult patients undergoing elective surgery for gastrointestinal malignancy. Risk prediction scores will be recorded pre- and peri-operatively.
Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- 30- and 60-day All-Cause Postoperative Mortality
- timeFrame
- 60 days after surgery
- description
- All-cause mortality within 30 and 60 days after gastrointestinal malignancy surgery performed under general anesthesia. Mortality data will be obtained from hospital records and verified through national health databases.
Secondary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Postoperative Pulmonary Complications
- timeFrame
- Within 30 days after surgery
- description
- Occurrence of any pulmonary complication including pneumonia, respiratory failure requiring reintubation or mechanical ventilation \>24 hours, bronchospasm, pulmonary edema, or atelectasis as defined by ARISCAT/EPCO criteria.
