- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method A composite of all-cause death, aborted sudden cardiac arrest, type I myocardial infarction, clinically diagnosed unstable angina, stress-induced cardiomyopathy, lethal arrhythmia such as sustained ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation, newly diagnosed or acutely decompensated heart failure.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method A composite of cerebrovascular attack, transient ischemic attack, systemic embolization, pulmonary thromboembolism, type II myocardial infarction, non-lethal arrhythmia such as non-sustained ventricular tachycardia or atrial fibrillation, and change of NT-proBNP.;cases in which cardiac interventions are necessary before surgery or significant cardiac disease are newly detected.
