Exploring postoperative atrial fibrillation after non-cardiac surgery: mechanisms, risk factors, and prevention strategies

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Atrial fibrillation (AF) stands as the most prevalent persistent arrhythmia and a common complication after surgical procedures. Although the majority of non-cardiac surgery patients experience postoperative AF (POAF) and the condition is typically self ...

Systemic-Immune-Inflammation Index as a Promising Biomarker for Predicting Perioperative Ischemic Stroke in Older Patients Who Underwent Non-cardiac Surgery

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
Objective This study aimed to investigate the clinical prognostic values of the preoperative systemic-immune-inflammation index (SII) in older patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery, using perioperative ischemic stroke as the primary outcome.

Perioperative myocardial injury is associated with increased postoperative non-cardiac complications in patients undergoing vascular surgery: a post hoc analysis of a randomised clinical pilot trial

open access: yesPerioperative Medicine, 2023
Background Elevated cardiac biomarkers, such as high-sensitivity cardiac Troponin T and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide improve the prediction of major adverse cardiac events.

Perioperative transesophageal echocardiography for non-cardiac surgery [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, 2017
The use of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has evolved to include patients undergoing high-risk non-cardiac procedures and patients with significant cardiac disease undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Implementation of basic TEE education in training programs has increased across a broad spectrum of procedures in the perioperative arena.

Coronary artery stents and non-cardiac surgery [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 2007
The utility of interventional cardiology has developed significantly over the last two decades with the introduction of coronary angioplasty and stenting, with the associated antiplatelet medications. Acute coronary stent occlusion carries a high morbidity and mortality, and the adoption of therapeutic strategies for prophylaxis against stent ...

The feasibility and applications of non-invasive cardiac output monitoring, thromboelastography and transit-time flow measurement in living-related renal transplantation surgery : results of a prospective pilot observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Introduction: Delayed graft function (DGF) remains a significant and detrimental postoperative phenomenon following living-related renal allograft transplantation, with a published incidence of up to 15%. Early therapeutic vasodilatory interventions have

Non-cardiac surgery in the heart failure patient [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2001
In this era of increasingly procedural cardiology, many physicians regard the cognitive exercise of preoperative evaluation for non-cardiac surgery as an onerous task. In reality, the preoperative period affords a window of opportunity for the consulting cardiologist to minimise surgical risk by maximising medical treatment, directing appropriate ...
