Summary

The investigators aim to show the feasibility and medicoeconomic impact of implementing a clinical screening and response system for the early detection of perioperative cardiac complications in high-risk patients.

Specifically, the investigators aim to: 1) evaluate the feasibility of implementation of a PMI-screening; 2) evaluate the medicoeconomic impact of implementing a PMI-screening; 3) identify barriers to implementation; 4) generate data for a future randomized controlled trial on outcomes by exploring opportunities to improve care following PMI, the occurrence and timing of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), and the treatment effect associated with PMI-screening.

Patient assessment and follow-up

There is no study-specific intervention. The investigators will record data generated by clinical activity before, during and after implementation of the PMI-screening. Follow-up data and the final PMI event adjudication will be the only data generated specifically for this study.
