Risk Factors Associated With Perioperative Myocardial Infarction in Major Open Vascular Surgery
Among patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery, major vascular surgery is associated with a high risk of perioperative myocardial infarction (MI). Currently there are no perioperative MI risk calculators accounting for intraoperative and postoperative risk factors in vascular surgery patients. We aimed to investigate specific risk factors for perioperative MI after major open vascular surgery to determine which patients are at highest risk of MI, and the association of perioperative MI with perioperative transfusion.
