Abstract
- We assessed the prognostic meaning of very early (<6 h) troponin increase after noncardiac surgery in a population of patients admitted to the recovery room, for whom troponin measurements were taken because of a suspected cardiac event. Among a total of 296 patients, abnormal troponin was found in 24 (8.1%). Ten patients in this group (41.7%) and 27 among those with normal troponin (9.9%) experienced cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or decompensated heart failure at one month (p < 0.0001). Troponin was independently associated with a two-fold risk of events (p < 0.0001). In these patients, very early troponin measurement in the recovery room may help to identify patients at risk of cardiovascular events.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest All authors have none to declare.<br /> (Copyright © 2020.
