Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This study is investigating additional postoperative patient outcomes within 30 days of index suergy in pre-existing patients who were recruited to the ENIGMA 2 Trial (which was conducted between May 30, 2008 and Sept 28, 2013), which did not collect pulmonary complications data at the time of the trial. Data collection for the study involves retrospective inspection of individual patient hospital medical records from the index hospital admission and surgery, to collect the required data on postoperative pulmonary complications following the index surgery. The trial intervention group received 70% nitrous oxide in oxygen inspired in the breathing circuit as part of inhalational general anaesthesia, delivered from post-induction of anaesthesia until end of surgery. The N2O concentration could be adjusted if the FIO2 is required to be increased due to arterial oxygen saturation measurements on the judgement of the attending anaesthetist.

Comparator / control treatment
The control group in the ENIGMA 2 trial received 30% oxygen in air inspired in the breathing circuit as part of inhalational general anaesthesia, delivered from post-induction of anaesthesia until end of surgery. The FIO2 could be increased if required due to arterial oxygen saturation measurements on the judgement of the attending anaesthetist.
Control group
Active

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 330116 0
Postoperative pulmonary atelectasis, confirmed by chest radiology report, recorded on the patients electronic hospital medical record within 30 days of their index surgery for the ENIGMA 2 Trial, extracted using data-linkage to medical records, with no active participant involvement.
Timepoint [1] 330116 0
Up to 30 days postoperative
Secondary outcome [1] 404939 0
Postoperative pneumonia, confirmed by the presence of a diagnostic pulmonary infiltrate on chest radiology report, along with one or more of a blood WCC >/= 12,000/mL, temperature >/= 38C, or positive sputum microbiological culture, recorded on the patients electronic hospital medical record within 30 days of their index surgery for the ENIGMA 2 Trial, extracted using data-linkage to medical records, with no active participant involvement.
Timepoint [1] 404939 0
Up to 30 days postoperative
