High-Sensitivity Troponin T Kinetics and 30-Day Outcomes After Major Abdominal Surgery (TROP-MAS) (TROP-MAS)

24. September 2026 aktualisiert von: Nguyen Toan Thang, Bach Mai Hospital

Association Between High-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin T Kinetics, Postoperative Complications, and 30-Day Mortality in Patients With Cardiovascular Risk Undergoing Major Abdominal Surgery: A Prospective Cohort Study

Major abdominal surgery (MAS) carries a high risk of 30-day mortality (>5%). Perioperative myocardial injury (PMI) and myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) frequently develop asymptomatically due to surgical analgesia. The 2022 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Guidelines recommend routine surveillance with high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) before and after surgery in high-risk patients, defining PMI by an absolute increase in hs-cTnT >= 14 ng/L or a peak > 5x ULN (> 70 ng/L). However, validation in Asian populations and major abdominal visceral resections is scarce.

This prospective observational cohort study (TROP-MAS) recruits >= 650 consecutive high-cardiovascular-risk patients undergoing major abdominal surgery at Bach Mai Hospital (Hanoi, Vietnam). The study systematically evaluates the incidence and prognostic significance of hs-cTnT kinetics (T0 baseline, T1 24h, T2 48h postoperative) regarding 30-day all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), and severe noncardiac complications (acute kidney injury, sepsis, anastomotic leak, bowel ischemia). Furthermore, it derives and validates population-specific optimal prognostic cut-off values using ROC curve analysis and multivariable Cox modeling.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

  1. Clinical Rationale and Knowledge Gap:

    Patients with cardiovascular risk undergoing major gastrointestinal, hepatopancreatobiliary, colorectal, or acute abdominal emergency operations experience immense physiological stress. While hs-cTnT is widely accepted as a prognostic biomarker, data specifically delineating the correlation between hs-cTnT elevation and severe surgical/infectious complications (such as anastomotic dehiscence, bowel gangrene, and septic shock) remain sparse. Evidence suggests that microvascular myocardial necrosis and systemic hyperinflammation share common endothelial and microcirculatory pathophysiological pathways.

  2. Biomarker Sampling Schedule:

    • T0: Baseline preoperative hs-cTnT drawn within 24 hours prior to surgery.
    • T1: Postoperative 24 hours (± 6h).
    • T2: Postoperative 48 hours (± 6h).
    • Additional measurements (Tx) performed upon clinical indication (new ECG ischemia, hypotension, unexplained arrhythmia).
  3. Core Diagnostic Definitions:

    • ESC 2022 PMI: Delta hs-cTnT >= 14 ng/L (calculated as Peak(T1, T2) - T0, or |T2 - T1|) OR any postoperative peak concentration >= 70 ng/L (> 5x ULN, Roche Cobas Elecsys STAT assay).
    • Myocardial Ischemia Symptoms/Signs: Sensed within 24h of troponin elevation: chest/neck/jaw/arm discomfort, dyspnea, pulmonary edema, ischemic ECG shifts (>= 1 mm ST depression, symmetric T-wave inversion, pathological Q waves, new LBBB), or new wall motion abnormalities on transthoracic echocardiography.
  4. Follow-up Protocol:

Triangulated 30-day follow-up:

  • Complete in-hospital record tracking until discharge.
  • Structured telephone interview conducted at Day 30 ± 3 days post-surgery.
  • Cross-verification with Bach Mai Hospital Electronic Medical Record (EMR/HIS) system.
