Utility of preoperative brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin I in predicting perioperative major adverse cardiovascular events in elderly patients undergoing noncardiac surgery

Utility of preoperative brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin I in predicting perioperative major adverse cardiovascular events in elderly patients undergoing noncardiac surgery

Background: Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) are frequently encountered in patients undergoing noncardiac surgeries. This study evaluated the utility of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) to predict MACE in elderly patients (aged ≥60 years) undergoing noncardiac...
