Cardiovascular risk assessment of the diabetic patient undergoing major noncardiac surgery
Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 06/23/09
Hoeks S et al. - Diabetes, a presently rapidly expanding disease, is a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. When an increased cardiac risk is assessed, two strategies could be used to reduce the incidence of perioperative cardiac events: prophylactic coronary revascularization from which the value is still controversial, and pharmacological treatment (with beta-blockers, statins and aspirin), associated with improved post-operative outcome.
