Summary

The vascular surgery is a highest risk procedure when considering postoperative complications associated with the cardiovascular system. The leading clinical presentation is acute hemodynamic decompensation. However, one of the possible pathomechanisms might be repolarization disturbances. Many of perioperative risk factors of cardiac complications are modifiable. The identification may help in the global perioperative risk reduction.

Aim: The aim of the study was an identification of the factors which may release clinically overt repolarization disturbances.

Methods: The study group consisted of 100 patients, diagnosed with abdominal subrenal aortic aneurysms or peripheral arterial disease scheduled for an elective "open" vascular surgery procedure. The authors investigated whether age, gender, comorbidities or some perioperative factors (including hemodynamic, metabolic or genetic) were related to the occurrence of clinically concealed repolarization disturbances or clinically disclosed cardiac complications in postoperative time up to 30 day and one year after vascular surgery procedure.
