Does dietary nitrate supplementation improve performance in cardiopulmonary exercise testing and post-operative recovery in patients with colorectal cancer? : a randomised controlled trial
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Major surgery generates a stress response which increases oxygen demand and consumption post-operatively. Patients with low cardiopulmonary reserve may not be able to meet the increased oxygen demand and are at risk of increased morbidity.
