Abstract:
Perioperative cardiac events can be a major consequence of surgery. The American College of Cardiology Foundation/American Heart Association has set out guidelines to aid physicians in identifying patients at the highest risk for these events. The guidelines do recommend for some patients to undergo non-invasive cardiac stress testing for further risk stratification, but their sensitivity and specificity for predicting cardiac events is not optimal. With more data emerging of the superior performance of computed coronary tomography angiography (CCTA) compared to non-invasive stress testing, CCTA could be more useful in risk stratification for these patients.
