Why the study?
What is the long-term cardiac prognosis for patients following noncardiac surgery, particularly those with perioperative ischemic events?
What is the long-term cardiac prognosis for patients following noncardiac surgery, particularly those with perioperative ischemic events?
Survivors of in-hospital perioperative ischemic events after noncardiac surgery are at high risk for long-term adverse cardiac outcomes and warrant aggressive follow-up.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May warrant closer postdischarge surveillance in patients with perioperative ischemia; leaves open whether interventions improve long-term outcomes.
