About this trial

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.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Signed informed consent

Patients 45 years or older

Disqualifiers

Refuse to participate in the study

Myocardial injury or acute myocardial infarction less than two weeks ago

Patients who expect less than 2 days of hospitalization

Patients in whom the troponin elevation is attributed to a secondary cause (for example, sepsis, pulmonary thromboembolism, electrical cardioversion, etc.)

Trial population

Patients scheduled for non-cardiac surgery of 45 years old and older.
