Key result
Preoperative risk assessment for noncardiac vascular surgery relies on clinical factors to gauge perioperative risk and determine when pharmacologic stress testing is necessary.
Why the study?
How should perioperative risk be assessed in patients undergoing noncardiac vascular surgery?
How should perioperative risk be assessed in patients undergoing noncardiac vascular surgery?
Provides an overview of how to assess perioperative risk before noncardiac vascular surgery using clinical factors and pharmacologic stress testing.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports clinical risk stratification to guide testing in vascular surgery; leaves open need for prospective validation of algorithms.
