It is evident that patients experiencing noncardiac surgery often have diabetes mellitus (DM) and an elevated risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, there is less evidence for the influence of diabetes on trends in perioperative cardiovascular events.
A study which aimed to reveal whether progressive declines in the frequency of perioperative major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) apply to patients with DM reported that perioperative MACCEs were more common among patients with DM when compared with those without DM. The study sample included 10,581,621 hospitalizations for major noncardiac surgery. Moreover, study further…
