Preoperative cardiac evaluation for elective noncardiac surgery.
We reviewed the approach to preoperative cardiac risk assessment, incorporating new information regarding the pathophysiologic features of perioperative myocardial ischemia and recent clinical trials. Relevant articles were identified from a MEDLINE search, followed by bibliography review of the articles identified. The multifactorial risk indexes are valuable in stratifying risks among unselec...
متن کاملPreoperative evaluation of the cardiac patient for noncardiac surgery.
In summary, obtaining a comprehensive patient history is a critical part of the diagnostic and risk stratification process of the patient with cardiac disease undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Many of the factors associated with perioperative cardiac morbidity are treatable and early and aggressive management appears to have beneficial effects on morbidity and mortality rates.
متن کاملPreoperative cardiac evaluation with transthoracic echocardiography before non-cardiac surgery
Transthoracic echocardiography has become increasingly popular in clinical practice. It is used for the functional evaluation of patients with various cardiovascular diseases. Its use has been extended further in routine screening for cardiovascular health and in preoperative risk assessment before non-cardiac surgery because it is non-invasive, easy to perform, reproducible, and cost-effective...
متن کاملPreoperative testing before noncardiac surgery: guidelines and recommendations.
Preoperative testing (e.g., chest radiography, electrocardiography, laboratory testing, urinalysis) is often performed before surgical procedures. These investigations can be helpful to stratify risk, direct anesthetic choices, and guide postoperative management, but often are obtained because of protocol rather than medical necessity. The decision to order preoperative tests should be guided b...
متن کاملCardiac risk of noncardiac surgery.
Major perioperative cardiac events are estimated to complicate between 1.4% and 3.9% of surgeries. Because most surgeries are elective, there is the opportunity to implement strategies to reduce this risk. Accurate identification of patients at risk for such events will allow patients to be better informed about the benefit-to-risk ratio of procedures, and guide allotment of limited clinical re...
