Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Prophylactic percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty is one revascularization strategy employed to reduce risks of cardiac complications after noncardiac surgery in certain patients. Reduced adverse cardiac event rates are at least partially offset by costs and complications of angioplasty. Patients who undergo noncardiac surgery within 90 days of coronary angioplasty may be at increased risk for postoperative cardiac complications. |
