Abstract
Aim. To evaluate any cardiovascular abnormalities in the postoperative period, their prevalence and impact on the course of postoperative period in patients after non-cardiac surgery, which underwent postoperative examinations of cardiovascular system.Material and methods. The study included 2937 patients. The assessed end points were postoperative cardiovascular events (CVEs). Along with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), we analyzed any cardiovascular abnormalities in the postoperative period as follows: electrocardiographic ST-T abnormalities, acute or decompensated heart failure (HF), arrhythmias, episodes of hypotension or hypertension, bleeding, thromboembolic events (TEEs), cerebrovascular events, postoperative delirium. Any CVEs constituted the any cardiovascular events' (ACVEs) group. Statistical analysis was carried out using the StatTech v program. 3.1.6 (OOO Stattekh, Russia).Results. Any postoperative complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification were 54,7%, while grade 1 — 33,9%, grade 2 — 20,3%, grade 3 — 1 case, grade 4 — 0,4%, grade 5 — 0,1%. MACEs developed in 0,2% of cases. ACVEs amounted to 13,3%, including 2,3% — ST-T abnormalities, 6,3% — significant systolic blood pressure changes, 2,6% — arrhythmias, 0,7% — HF, 2,4% — bleeding, 1,1% — TEEs, 0,3% — delirium. In addition, 67 (17,5%) patients had ≥2 CVEs. Comparison of the length of hospital stay of patients with ACVEs, in particular with MACEs, ECG ST-T abnormalities, HF, arrhythmia, episodes of hypotension or hypertension, bleeding, TEEs, cerebrovascular events, delirium, with groups of patients without such complications revealed significant differences. ACVEs accounted for 1/4 of all postoperative complications and 2/3 of complications of grades 2-5.Conclusion. We expanded the concept of CVEs, united the totality of any cardiovascular abnormalities in the postoperative period, emphasized not only their clinical significance, but also the economic feasibility of taking into account ACVEs.
期刊介绍:
The most important objectives of the journal are: the generalization of scientific and practical achievements in the field of cardiology, increasing scientific and practical skills of cardiologists.
The scientific concept of publication does the publication of modern achievements in the field of epidemiology, prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, the results of research, national and international clinical trials.
For publication in the journal are invited both domestic and foreign scientists and clinicians working in the field of cardiology, as well as doctors of other specialties.
The magazine covers various issues in cardiology and related specialties. Each issue is prepared by Executive editor of the issue, a respected specialist in the field of epidemiology, prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
The main focus of the publication — scientific articles on original research, the pharmacotherapy of cardiovascular disease, new diagnostic methods.
All members of the group of authors should meet all four criteria of authorship set forth in the ICMJE recommendations: 1) concept and design development or data analysis and interpretation, and 2) manuscript justification or verification of critical intellectual content, and 3) final approval for publication of the manuscript, and 4) consent to be responsible for all aspects of the work, and assume that issues relating to the thoroughness and diligent execution of any part of the study submitted are duly investigated and resolved.
Great importance the editors attached to the preparation of scientific papers by groups of authors at a high level, literacy, authors, and their ownership information, availability of research results not only to colleagues in Russia, but also abroad.
