Key result
CVD patients undergoing noncardiac surgery experience a ~71% rate of perioperative cardiovascular complications.
Why the study?
Do ASA classification, Goldman scoring system, and cardiology consultation predict perioperative mortality and morbidity in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery?
Observational (n=500)
No

Age, hypertension, and operation type are key risk factors for perioperative morbidity in patients with cardiovascular disease undergoing noncardiac surgery.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
High perioperative complication rates in CVD patients warrant targeted monitoring; leaves open whether intervening on age, hypertension, or surgery type improves outcomes.
Can et al. (2018) conducted an observational in Cardiovascular disease undergoing noncardiac surgery (n=500). Preoperative cardiac risk factors and indices (ASA, Goldman, ACC/AHA) vs. Patients without the respective risk factors was evaluated on Perioperative morbidity (hemodynamic complications). In patients with cardiovascular disease undergoing noncardiac surgery, perioperative cardiovascular complications occurred in 70.8%, with advanced age, hypertension, and specific operation types identified as independent risk factors.
