American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification (https://www.asahq.org/quality-and-practice-management/standards-and-guidelines/): 1 = normal healthy; 2 = mild systemic disease, no functional limitation (e.g., smoker with well-controlled hypertension); 3 = severe systemic disease, definite functional impairment (e.g., diabetes and angina with relatively stable disease, but requiring therapy).
Other surgeries (N = 1 each) included bronchoscopy (uniportal right vats completion, right upper lobectomy), osteotomy, parathyroidectomy, right anterior mini-thoracotomy with excision of pericardial phrenic nodules, right thoracotomy (right upper lobe wedge resection, right lower lobe wedge resection), and spinal laminectomy.
