Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study to determine the prognostic value of the Selvester QRS score for perioperative myocardial injury following elective non-cardiac surgery.

Description:

This study was designed as an investigator-directed, non-commercial, observational, prospective, national, single-center study. The effect of preoperative complex ECG changes on the formation of cardiac damage will be studied. The data of the people participating in the study will be kept entirely confidential. After being informed about the study, all patients giving written informed consent will undergo preoperative evaluation. An ECG and cardiac troponin analysis will be performed to the patients who meet the eligibility. After the surgery will be completed control cardiac troponin and extensive physical examination will be performed.

Primary	The prediction of perioperative cardiac injury with preoperative Selvester ECG Score	Selvester ECG score is a validated technique for predicting myocardial scar and injury level in patients who undergone PCI. It is aimed to predict and demonstrate perioperative myocardial damage using this algorithm.	Change from Baseline cardiac troponin levels at postoperative 1st hour in PACU
