52 Chapter 3 Table 4. The differences in aspects of functional status in patients with postoperative complications compared to patients without postoperative complications at different time points T1 (95% CI) P -value T2 (95% CI) HGS 4.0 (-3.9 to 11.9) .32 -1.4 (-9.9 to 7.2) MIP -7.9 (-20.4 to 4.6) .21 -3.6 (-16.7 to 9.5) 30CST -2.4 (-13.2 to 8.5) .67 3.9 (-7.7 to 15.5) 2MWT 0.7 (-10.1 to 11.6) .89 6.6 (-5.1 to 18.3) ADL 126.4 (-47.0 to 299.8) .15 164.1 (-23.5 to 351.8) Fatigue 0.3 (-5.0 to 5.6) .92 -2.8 (-8.4 to 2.9) HRQL -2.8 (-7.8 to 2.3) .28 -2.7 (-5.8 to 5.3) Regression coefficients represent the difference in functional status between the group with and without complications at T1, 2, 3 and 4. P -value ≤ 0.05 is considered significant. Abbreviations: MIP, maximal inspiratory pressure; HGS, handgrip strength; 30CST, 30-second chair stand test; 2MWT, 2-minute walk test; HRQL, health-related quality of life.
