Perioperative Myokardischämie: Aktuelle Aspekte und Konzepte

2019 
: In the future an increasing number of older patients with significant comorbidities will have to undergo major surgical procedures. Perioperative cardiovascular events account for many major complications and even fatalities. While perioperative myocardial infarction (PMI) is a generally well-known and recognized complication, the less severe myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) has not gained widespread scientific attention until recently; however, two large observational trials (VISION 1 and VISION 2) have shown a significantly increased mortality after MINS with even subtle increases in troponin T being associated with an increased risk of death. This review summarizes the current knowledge pertaining to PMI and MINS and proposes a diagnostic and therapeutic framework for optimally guiding patients at risk through the perioperative period.
