    Abstract Background: Coagulopathy in cardiac surgery is frequently associated with acquired hypofibrinogenaemia, which can be treated with either purified fibrinogen concentrate (FC) or cryoprecipitate. Because the latter is not purified and therefore contains additional coagulation factors, it is thought to be more effective for treatment of coagulopathy that occurs after prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). We examined the impact of CPB duration on the efficacy of the two therapies in cardiac surgery.
    Methods: This was a post hoc analysis of the Fibrinogen Replenishment in Surgery (FIBRES) RCT comparing FC (4 g) to cryoprecipitate (10 U) in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery and experiencing bleeding with acquired hypofibrinogenaemia (n=735). The primary outcome was allogeneic blood products transfused within 24 h after CPB. Subjects were stratified by CPB duration (≤120, 121-180, and >180 min). The interaction of treatment assignment with CPB duration was tested.
    Results: Subjects with longer CPB duration experienced more bleeding and transfusion. With CPB time ≤120 min (FC, n=134; cryoprecipitate, n=146), the ratio of least-squares means between the FC and cryoprecipitate groups for total allogeneic blood products at 24 h was 0.90 (one-sided 97.5% confidence interval [CI]: 0.00-1.12); P=0.004. For subjects with CPB time 121-180 min, it was 1.00 ([one-sided 97.5% CI: 0.00-1.22]; P=0.03], and for CPB time >180 min it was 0.91 ([one-sided 97.5% CI: 0.00-1.12]; P=0.005). Results were similar for all secondary outcomes, with no interaction between treatment and CPB duration for all outcomes.
    Conclusions: The haemostatic efficacy of FC was non-inferior to cryoprecipitate irrespective of CPB duration in cardiac surgery.

    Abstract Background: Clinical presentation of postoperative myocardial infarction (POMI) is often silent. Several international guidelines recommend routine troponin surveillance in patients at risk. We compared how these different guidelines select patients for surveillance after noncardiac surgery with our established risk stratification model.
    Methods: We used outcome data from two prospective studies: Measurement of Exercise Tolerance before Surgery (METS) and Troponin Elevation After Major non-cardiac Surgery (TEAMS). We compared the major American, Canadian, and European guideline recommendations for troponin surveillance with our established risk stratification model. For each guideline and model, we quantified the number of patients requiring monitoring, % POMI detected, sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic odds ratio, and number needed to screen (NNS).
    Results: METS and TEAMS contributed 2350 patients, of whom 319 (14%) had myocardial injury, 61 (2.5%) developed POMI, and 14 (0.6%) died. Our risk stratification model selected fewer patients for troponin monitoring (20%), compared with the Canadian (78%) and European (79%) guidelines. The sensitivity to detect POMI was highest with the Canadian and European guidelines (0.85; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.74-0.92). Specificity was highest using the American guidelines (0.91; 95% CI 0.90-0.92). Our risk stratification model had the best diagnostic odds ratio (2.5; 95% CI 1.4-4.2) and a lower NNS (21 vs 35) compared with the guidelines.
    Conclusions: Most postoperative myocardial infarctions were detected by the Canadian and European guidelines but at the cost of low specificity and a higher number of patients undergoing screening. Patient selection based on our risk stratification model was optimal.

    Abstract Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the effect of the 2017 Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) guidelines on troponin surveillance after noncardiac surgery.
    Methods: This was a single-centre, retrospective, observational study. Patients aged 40 yr or older undergoing intermediate- to high-risk elective noncardiac surgery between 2016 and 2021 were included. We compared the number and percentage of troponin tests ordered before and after the guidelines were published and compared patient characteristics, specifically cardiovascular comorbidity, using odds ratio's (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Outcomes were myocardial injury, myocardial infarction (MI), and in-hospital mortality.
    Results: The cohort included 36,386 patients and the median age was 63 yr. Between 2016 and 2018, troponin surveillance was done in 2,461 (13%) of the 19,046 patients, compared with 2,398 (14%) of the 17,340 patients who had surgery between 2019 and 2021 (OR, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.15). Patients who had surgery in the second period had less cardiovascular comorbidity; the adjusted OR for troponin surveillance was 1.14 (95% CI, 1.07 to 1.21). In the two periods, troponin was elevated in 561 (2.9%) and 470 (2.7%) patients, an MI was documented in 54 (0.3%) and 36 (0.2%) patients, and 95 (0.5%) and 73 (0.4%) patients died, respectively. After adjustment for baseline differences in the two periods, the ORs for MI and mortality were 0.83 (95% CI, 0.54 to 1.27) and 0.88 (95% CI, 0.64 to 1.19), respectively.
    Conclusion: Although the odds of troponin ordering were slightly but significantly higher after publication of the CCS guidelines, the odds for detecting an MI and for mortality did not change.

    Abstract Liver transplantation (LT) is the second most performed solid organ transplant. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a critical consideration for LT candidacy, particularly in patients with known CAD or risk factors, including metabolic dysfunction associated with steatotic liver disease. The presence of severe CAD may exclude patients from LT; therefore, precise preoperative evaluation and interventions are necessary to achieve transplant candidacy. Cardiovascular complications represent the earliest nongraft-related cause of death post-transplantation. Timely intervention to reduce cardiovascular events depends on adequate CAD screening. Coronary disease screening in end-stage liver disease is challenging because standard noninvasive CAD screening tests have low sensitivity due to hyperdynamic state and vasodilatation. As a result, there is overuse of invasive coronary angiography to exclude severe CAD. Coronary artery calcium scoring using a computed tomography scan is a tool for the prediction of cardiovascular events, and can be used to achieve risk stratification in LT candidates. Recent literature shows that qualitative assessment on both noncontrast- and contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography can be used instead of calcium score to assess the presence of coronary calcium. With increasing prevalence, protocols to address CAD in LT candidates must be reconsidered. Percutaneous coronary intervention could allow a shorter duration of dual-antiplatelet therapy in simple lesions, with safer perioperative outcomes. Hybrid coronary revascularization is an option for high-risk LT candidates with multivessel disease nonamenable to percutaneous coronary intervention. The objective of this review is to evaluate existing methods for preoperative cardiovascular risk stratification, and to describe interventions before surgery to optimize patient outcomes and reduce cardiovascular event risk.
