Highlights

  • The number of surgeries performed annually worldwide exceeds 300 million and is ever-growing[1,2]

  • The Fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction recognizes “myocardial injury” as a distinct entity with a milder form of myocardial necrosis leading to the release of detectable troponin

It is unclear whether MINS may be genuinely a precursor to acute myocardial infarction (AMI)

The number of surgeries performed annually worldwide exceeds 300 million and is ever-growing[1,2]. Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) is the release of detectable troponin in the absence of symptoms within 30-day. The studied strategies and drugs to prevent MINS have either failed to translate in clinical trials in humans, or showed inconclusive results.
