Infrainguinal bypass under triple nerve block in patients with severely compromised left ventricular ejection fraction and chronic limb-threatening ischemia
2021, Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative TechniquesCitation Excerpt :HF remains highly prevalent in the elderly population,21,22 with nearly one-half of all HF cases being due to impaired LV systolic function.23 In turn, a compromised LVEF remains a the key factor in predicting perioperative mortality in noncardiac interventions,2-10 particularly those performed for CLTI owing to peripheral arterial disease.24-26 Issues associated with GA in HF with a reduced LVEF include maintaining forward flow to prevent coronary ischemia, pulmonary hypertension, and end-organ dysfunction, as well as the need to promote inotropy without inducing or worsening ischemia.15,16
Preoperative Right Ventricular Echocardiographic Parameters Predict Perioperative Cardiovascular Complications in Patients Undergoing Non-Cardiac Surgery
2020, Heart Lung and CirculationCitation Excerpt :Current guidelines recommend preoperative cardiac stress echocardiography in patients with limited functional capacity who are considered to have a risk of a major cardiac event of ≥1% on the basis of clinical factors [1]. However, these guidelines do not recommend routine resting TTE for the evaluation of cardiac function before NCS, owing to conflicting results regarding the significance of a preoperative TTE at rest in patients who underwent NCS [10–12]. Moreover, all observational studies examining the effect of TTE on perioperative outcomes have focussed on left ventricular function, left venticular hypertrophy, and valvular dysfunction in patients undergoing NCS [13].

2008, Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular AnesthesiaCitation Excerpt :Risk stratification of patients could potentially improve outcomes by identifying patients who might benefit from more intensive care and invasive monitoring. Numerous methods (both invasive and noninvasive) have been proposed to perform preoperative risk stratification.21-28 These investigative modalities have a very low positive predictive value (stress echocardiogram 18%, dipyridamole thallium 13.8%, and dobutamine stress echo 14%).19
Preoperative evaluation of patients with, or at risk of, coronary artery disease undergoing non-cardiac surgery
2002, British Journal of AnaesthesiaCitation Excerpt :Often, vascular patients do not reach the target heart rates because of limb claudication, and therefore have an inadequate examination. In patients who can perform the test, studies conducted in vascular and non-vascular patients are not conclusive for its ability to predict perioperative cardiac complications.32 41 59 113 However, a recent prospective study on intermediate-risk patients confirmed that a ST-segment depression of 0.1 mV or more during exercise is an independent predictor of perioperative ischaemic events.39
