These associations warrant caution but should not yet change practice; leaves open whether optimizing intraoperative hemodynamics reduces MINS.
Are intraoperative extremes in heart rate and systolic blood pressure associated with myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery?
Intraoperative tachycardia (>100 bpm) and hypotension (<100 mm Hg) are significantly associated with an increased risk of myocardial injury and mortality within 30 days after noncardiac surgery.
Abbott et al. (2017) studied this question.
