Brief Summary

An international team of experts is working on a project called PrECiSIOn to develop a clear, consistent definition of PPCs. The goals of this study are to:

* Define postoperative pulmonary complications in a way that makes sense for patients, families, and healthcare providers.
* Rank complications by severity so doctors can focus on the most serious ones first.
* Decide how and when to monitor patients after surgery to catch problems early.

Conditions

  • Postoperative Pulmonary Complications

Intervention / Treatment

  • Other: Delphi study
  • Other: Structured Interview

Primary Outcome Measures

  • Generate consensus on the postoperative pulmonary complications construct (3-6 months)
    A diverse group of panellists worldwide, based on pre-specified qualification criteria, will conduct iterative Delphi rounds to generate consensus on the construct of postoperative pulmonary complications.
