In the context of major surgery the predictive significance of respiratory function tests in relation to postoperative pleuro-pulmonary complications is assessed. A statistical analysis is performed on a series of 85 oesophagectomy after thoracotomy and laparotomy. The most significant respiratory function indices are found to be those relating to volume restriction and the Mottley index.

Abstract
In the context of major surgery the predictive significance of respiratory function tests in relation to postoperative pleuro-pulmonary complications is assessed. A statistical analysis is performed on a series of 85 oesophagectomy after thoracotomy and laparotomy. The most significant respiratory function indices are found to be those relating to volume restriction and the Mottley index.
