Implementation of a Clinical Screening and Response System for Cardiac Complications After Noncardiac Surgery
Implementation of a Clinical Screening and Response System for the Early Detection of Cardiac Complications After Noncardiac Surgery: Feasibility and Medicoeconomic Impact
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The investigators aim to show the feasibility and medicoeconomic impact of implementing a clinical screening and response system for the early detection of perioperative cardiac complications in high-risk patients. Specifically, the investigators aim to: 1) evaluate the feasibility of implementation of a PMI-screening; 2) evaluate the medicoeconomic impact of implementing a PMI-screening; 3) identify barriers to implementation; 4) generate data for a future randomized controlled trial on outcomes by exploring opportunities to improve care following PMI, the occurrence and timing of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), and the treatment effect associated with PMI-screening.
