A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study investigates the cardiac stress and electrocardiographic changes associated with modern mini-invasive lung cancer surgery. It aims to detail the electrocardiographic alterations and their duration during the perioperative and early postoperative periods. The study will involve 100 adult patients scheduled for elective lung cancer surgery, with electrocardiograms recorded preoperatively, daily postoperatively, and during follow-up visits. Additionally, laboratory tests will be conducted to assess cardiac stress indicators.
