About this trial
Over 300 million surgeries are performed globally every year. Complications after surgery - infections, cardiovascular conditions, postoperative pulmonary complications and renal impairment - affect survival and quality of life.
Age and co-morbidity are unmodifiable factors, contributing to increased risk of these perioperative complications. However, a modifiable risk factor is physical activity. This study aims to test if self reported physical activity has added predicted value, beyond established risk factors, for predicting perioperative morbidity and mortality.
Eligibility criteria

Disqualifiers
Patients under the age of 18, transplant, day surgery, acute surgery, anesthesia monitoring, brachy therapy and gamma knife interventions. In case of multiple surgeries, only the first will be included.
