Abstract
Thirty-day mortality associated with moderate to high-risk non-cardiac surgery in recent large cohorts and population-based studies exceeds 2%, and surpasses 5% in patients at high cardiac risk. Cardiac complications constitute the most common cause of postoperative morbidity and mortality, impacting considerably on length and cost of hospitalisation.
