Why the study?
Is clinically important hypotension during and after noncardiac surgery associated with a composite of myocardial infarction and death?
Is clinically important hypotension during and after noncardiac surgery associated with a composite of myocardial infarction and death?
Perioperative hypotension is a potentially modifiable risk factor significantly associated with myocardial infarction and death in noncardiac surgery patients.
Perioperative hypotension was associated with MI and death; hypothesis-generating for intervention trials before practice change.
Clinically important hypotension-a potentially modifiable exposure-was significantly associated with a composite of myocardial infarction and death during each of three perioperative periods, even after adjustment for previous hypotension.
