Popis: | The prognostic usefulness of the cardiac biomarkers N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2), in predicting adverse cardiac outcomes after orthopedic surgery is not well studied. The aim of our study was to determine the usefulness of perioperative NT-proBNP and ACE-2 for predicting cardiac events after emergency orthopedic surgery. The perioperative NT-proBNP and ACE-2 levels were determined in 187 consecutive patients aged >60 years who underwent orthopedic surgery with 1 year of follow-up for any cardiac complications (defined as acute myocardial infarction, congestive cardiac failure, atrial fibrillation, or major arrhythmia) and death. Of the 187 patients, 20 (10.7%) sustained an in-hospital postoperative cardiac complication. The total all-cause in-hospital and 1-year mortality rate was 1.6% (3 of 187) and 8.6% (16 of 187), respectively. The median preoperative and postoperative NT-proBNP level was greater in patients who sustained an in-hospital cardiac event than in those who had not (386 vs 2,273 pg/ml, p |
