AB  - Cardiovascular  disease  is  the  leading  cause  of  death  worldwide.  Of  the  200  million  patients  who  undergo  noncardiac  surgery  each  year  the  world  over,  approximately  10  million  have  a  major  perioperative  cardiac  complication  within  30  days.1  Taken  by  itself,  perioperative  death  constitutes  the  third  leading  cause  of  death  in  the  United  States  and  myocardial  injury  after  noncardiac  surgery  is  associated  with  a  population  attributable  risk  of  34%  for  death  at  30  days  in  a  recent  international  cohort  analysis.2,3  With  an  aging  and  increasingly  comorbid  population,  these  numbers  are  expected  to  grow.
