Endothelial Dysfunction During Non-cardiac Surgery and Major Clinical Events

Sponsor

University of Chile

Enrollment

200 participants

Start Date

Mar 25, 2023

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Surgery Stroke Myocardial Injury Cardiac Death

Summary

Endothelial dysfunction is a cardiovascular disease hallmark. After non-cardiac surgery, cardiovascular events correlate with surgical outcomes. Understanding the role of endothelial function in these events is crucial. This research aims to study endothelial function and its association with cardiovascular events.
