OBSERVATIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The aim of this observational study was to detect myocardial damage by monitoring high-sensitive troponin I levels in patients undergoing below-knee extremity surgery with peripheral nerve block. The primary question it aims to answer is: How effective are peroperative high-sensitive troponin I levels in predicting myocardial damage? High-sensitive troponin I levels will be monitored intraoperatively and at 24 and 48 hours postoperatively.
