Resumen
LUNA-ORTIZ, Pastor et al. Myocardial injury in the perioperative period of non-cardiac surgery. Rev. mex. anestesiol. [online]. 2021, vol.44, n.2, pp.123-129. Epub 04-Oct-2021. ISSN 0484-7903.
Recent studies on the death causes in the postoperative period of non-cardiac surgery have identified myocardial injury as a complication that is associated with major adverse cardiac events that increase mortality at 30 days after surgery. This kind of myocardial lesion is characterized by the elevation of the cardiac troponins levels during or in the 30 days after the surgery, without symptoms ischemia or changes in the electrocardiogram. Currently, one main goal has been the timely diagnosis of this complication, besides preventive therapies development. The present review article examines the current body of knowledge of this injury, the physiopathological mechanisms and its management.
