Study Summary

This prospective cohort study aims to determine whether the addition of the 6MWT to the RCRI score improves the risk prediction of postoperative cardiovascular outcomes after noncardiac surgery. In addition, this study will assess whether the patients' reported MET score corresponds to the determined MET score from the 6MWT distance completed.

Eligible Conditions
  • Noncardiac Surgery
  • Myocardial Infarction
  • Mortality
  • Risk Assessment

Timeline

Screening ~ 3 weeks
Treatment ~ Varies
Follow Up ~at 30 day after surgery
This trial's timeline: 3 weeks for screening, Varies for treatment, and at 30 day after surgery for reporting.
