NCT ID: NCT01543555 Completed - Clinical trials for Myocardial Infarction

Lowering the Risk of Operative Complications Using Atorvastatin Loading Dose

LOAD
Start date: November 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Patients submitted to noncardiac surgeries are at increased risk of serious cardiovascular complications. Statins have shown to lower cholesterol levels and reduce cardiovascular events in other scenarios. The objective of this study is to explore the effects of atorvastatin, as compared with placebo, on the 30-day risk of a composite of death, nonfatal Myocardial Injury after Noncardiac Surgery (MINS), or stroke among patients who undergo noncardiac surgery.
