Construction of a Prediction Model for Severe Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Complications in Elderly Patients After Elective Non-cardiac Surgery: a Prospective Cohort Study

Severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications, including cardiac death, non-fatal angina/myocardial infarction, non-fatal heart failure, stroke, severe arrhythmia, etc., are one of the main types of postoperative complications in elderly patients, and are also the main causes of perioperative death in elderly patients. With the aging population and the large proportion of elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery, it is increasingly important to establish a prediction model for postoperative severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in elderly patients undergoing noncardiac surgery.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This project intends to use a multi-center, prospective cohort study method to include about 3000 elderly patients over 65 years old who are planning to undergo non-cardiac surgery, collect relevant data before, during and after surgery, observe the occurrence of serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications in the perioperative period, establish a "MACCE risk prediction model for elderly patients after elective non-cardiac surgery", and verify its effectiveness and reliability. The results of this study will help to improve the predictive ability of postoperative complications of severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in elderly patients undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery, which is conducive to early risk assessment, risk classification, strengthening perioperative patient management, reducing the incidence of postoperative MACCE, and improving the prognosis of elderly patients.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
positive event group

The following complications occur within 3-7 days after surgery:

  1. all-cause death;
  2. non-fatal myocardial infarction/angina pectoris (new or recurring);
  3. non-fatal heart failure (new onset or recurrence);
  4. non-fatal cerebral infarction (new or reappeared);
  5. new or recurrent malignant arrhythmias (ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation, atrial flutter/atrial fibrillation, hemodynamically unstable second/third degree atrioventricular block);
The Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI) attempts to estimate the likelihood of cardiac complications during hospitalization in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery.The Frailty Index is a commonly used tool in clinical practice to assess the degree of frailty in patients.The Quality of Recovery-15 scale (QoR-15) is an easy-to-use score for assessing the quality of post-operative recovery.
Other Names:
  • Frailty index scale

The following complications did not occur within 3-7 days after surgery:

  1. all-cause death;
  2. non-fatal myocardial infarction/angina pectoris (new or recurring);
  3. non-fatal heart failure (new onset or recurrence);
  4. non-fatal cerebral infarction (new or reappeared);
  5. new or recurrent malignant arrhythmias (ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation, atrial flutter/atrial fibrillation, hemodynamically unstable second/third degree atrioventricular block);
