The nomogram model which based on anesthesia duration, crystalloid infusion volume, upper abdominal surgery, malignancy, fentanyl dosage, prophylactic use of antibiotics, age, smoking, preoperative chest X-ray abnormalities, intraoperative hypotension and elective surgery provides strong predictive value and clinical utility for assessing the risk of PPCs in elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.
