Summary

This is an investigator initiated, multi-center, open-labelled, superiority randomized controlled trial of 372 patients undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery. Recruited patients will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive single subcutaneous dose of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist (GLP-1 RAs) 1 to 14 days prior to surgery or receive routine care.

Dulaglutide (Trulicity; Eli Lilly, USA) is chosen as GLP-1 Receptor Agonists investigational drug for this study. Apart from peri-operative routine care, all recruited subjects will undergo physical, respiratory and cardiac assessments including electrocardiography and blood check including cardiac enzymes. Myocardial injury, cardiovascular outcomes and safety will be assessed and evaluated for efficacy and safety of this prophylactic measurement for the reduction of myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery.
