Title: The impact of recent high-risk coronary artery disease on major vascular complications after non-cardiac surgery
Other Titles: HIGH-RISK CAD & VASCULAR OUTCOMES WITH NON-CARDIAC SURGERY

Publication Date: Jun-2015
Abstract: Recent high-risk coronary artery disease (CAD), defined as Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) class III or IV angina or acute coronary syndromes (ACS) unstable angina, is independently associated with increased mortality and morbidity following non-cardiac surgery. It remains unclear how the components of high-risk CAD, use of stents and timing of surgery after a high-risk CAD event is associated with risk. This project will address these issues and how they affect current perioperative medicine.
