摘　　要：One hundred and twenty-six patients above 80 years old with biliary diseases undergoing operations in Shaoxing People’s Hospital from Jan.2002 to Jan.2007 were analyzed retrospectively.All patients performed a preoperative stair-climbing test,and the risks for cardio-pulmonary complications were evaluated with pair-matching and linear correlations analysis between stair-climbing height(h)and left ventricular ejective factor(EF),forced vital capacity(FVC)and forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1).There was a significant difference in the incidence of cardiopulmonary complications among different stair-climbing heights.Stair-climbing heights were positively related with EF,FVC and FEV1.This suggests that the stair-climbing test is an effective and simple method for predicting cardiopulmonary complica-tions in elderly patients with biliary diseases.
