Patient biomarkers may be monitored before, during, and/or after thoracic surgery to predict complications, detect complications, track recovery, and/or make pre-, in- and/or post-surgery recommendations to avoid predicted complications and/or mitigate detected complications. Complications (e.g., prolonged air leak or esophageal stricture) may be predicted based on patient parameters and/or biomarker measurements. Complications may be predicted or detected based on biomarker measurements compared to thresholds associated with a biomarker (e.g., developed from baselines) generated based on patient parameters, pre- and/or in-surgery biomarker measurements, and/or surgical details (e.g., decrease in long capacity). Recovery milestones may be tracked based on biomarker measurements compared to predicted biomarker measurements for recovery stages. A recommendation (e.g., to avoid a predicted complication and/or mitigate a detected complication) may be a patient-specific selection and/or modification of more of: surgical preparation, in-surgery procedures, surgical instrument selection, surgical and/or post-surgical instrument settings, post-surgery procedures, in-surgery and/or post-surgery monitoring, etc.
