Development of a New Prognostic Assessment Tool for Postoperative Myocardial Injury

Recruiting
Conditions
Perioperative Complication
Myocardial Injury
Registration Number
NCT04286685
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Brest
Brief Summary

Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) is common, silent, and strongly associated with morbi-mortality.

There are some evidences in the littérature showing that troponin elevation pre and/or postoperatively and surgical Apgar score are strongly and independently associated with postoperative morbi-mortality.

In this cohort study of orthopedic surgery patients (\> 50years), the aim is to determine MINS incidence and to assess wich peri-operative factors are associated with the occurrence of MINS. The final objective is to create a score to better identified the patients with a MINS and a poor outcome.

Stroke

Number of Participants with an episode of acute pulmonary oedema3 months

Acute pulmonary oedema

Number of Participants with coronary angioplasty3 months

Coronary angioplasty

Death

Revised Cardiac Risk Index for Pre-Operative Risk (Lee score)Inclusion

Minimum value = 0 Minimum value = 0, maximum value = 6, higher scores mean a worse outcome (higher peri operative mortality risk)

Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET)Inclusion

Minimum value = 1, Maximum value= 10, a low score (MET \<4) is associated with a capacity to do some light intensity activities and is associated with cardiovascular risk.

Number of Participants with cardiac arrest3 months

Cardiac arrest
