Numerous lung cancer surgery patients possess COPD, and the surgery may be regarded as a definitive aggravation of COPD. It is ambiguous in practical application whether referral to pulmonary rehabilitation programs enhances surgical and patient-reported results. We want to address this topic by conducting a propensity-score analysis (PSA) of participants in an enriched cohort trial. Methods An enriched cohort research was conducted, providing rehabilitation both pre- and post-surgery pragmatically through local pulmonary rehabilitation providers for patients undergoing lung cancer resection, and compared to a contemporaneous control group receiving standard treatment. The study enrolled 873 participants (pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) n = 135, non-intervention or control (NG) n = 738). Regression analyses for exposed and unexposed matching, effect estimation, and standard error estimations were conducted.Results A total of 114 participants were matched PR (n = 57) and NG (n = 57). The multivariate-linear regression indicated a reduction in length of stay (LOS) of 0.2 days of LOS compared to the usual care group (EE = - 0.20), and that reduction could potentially go up to 1.8 days (95% CI = - 1.8-1.6). The multivariate log-binomial regression revealed that PR had a reduction of 60% postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC) rate (EE = - 0.60, 95% CI = - 1.8-0.5). Lastly, the multivariate-linear regression showed an improvement in quality of life 6 weeks and 6 months after surgery (QoL) in patients in PR, especially in the physical functioning score in which an improvement of 6.6% was noted for the PR group compared to the NG group following surgery (EE = 6.6).
