• Patients on strong CYP3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein inhibitors (e.g., ritonavir, clarithromycin, diltiazem, verapamil) at baseline will also be excluded due to potential drug interactions
  • However, if one of these medications are started during the post-operative study period, dose adjustments will be made per drug package insert
  • Participants will also be instructed not to drink grapefruit juice while on study drug

• Any significant condition or situation that may put the participant at higher risk, confound the study results, or interfere with adherence to study procedures

Laborértékek

• Active infection defined as fever >100.4oF or antibiotic use with white blood cell count greater than the upper limit of normal or lower than the lower limit of normal within 24 hours of randomization (major confounder with increased inflammatory markers)

Egyéb

• Referred for intermediate- or high-risk surgery (general abdominal or intraperitoneal surgery, neurosurgery, suprainguinal surgery, peripheral vascular surgery, thoracic surgery).
• If planned for only a laparoscopic or endovascular approach (this includes a minimally invasive hybrid approach such as transcarotid artery revascularization), at least one component of the Revised Cardiac Risk Index score (history of myocardial infarction, history of congestive heart failure, history of transient ischemic attack or stroke, pre-operative use of insulin, pre-operative creatinine >2 mg/dL) should be present.
