Does intermittent 12-lead ECG recording accurately detect peri-operative myocardial ischaemia compared to continuous Holter monitoring and biomarkers in vascular surgery patients?

Population

55 vascular surgery patients at risk for or with a history of coronary artery disease

Intervention

Intermittent 12-lead ECG recordings taken pre-operatively and at 15 min, 20 h, 48 h, 72 h and 84 h postoperatively

Comparator

Continuous 3-channel Holter monitoring and serial analyses of creatine kinase myocardial band isoenzyme and cardiac troponin T and I

Outcome

Concordance of 12-lead ECG with continuous monitoring and biomarkers for detecting peri-operative myocardial ischaemiasurrogate

Postoperative intermittent 12-lead ECG effectively identifies peri-operative myocardial ischaemia associated with myocardial cell damage in vascular surgery patients.
