Official title:
Pathophysiology and Prevention of Perioperative Myocardial Injury: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
Working hypothesis and aims: 1) To explore the pathophysiology of postoperative troponin elevations and 2) whether ranolazine, a new anti-ischemic drug that has no effect on blood pressure or heart rate, prevents postoperative myocardial injury.
High-risk patients undergoing non cardiac surgery will be randomized to receive either Ranolazine or placebo perioperatively and troponin will be measured on the first 3 days after surgery. ;
Allocation: Randomized, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Prevention
