Description

Enhance understanding of the role cardiac biomarkers play in assessing and managing perioperative cardiovascular risk.

Objectives

Describe the types and physiological significance of key cardiac biomarkers, including troponins (cTnI, cTnT), BNP, and NT-proBNP, and their role in cardiac risk assessment. Develop skills to accurately interpret cardiac biomarker levels in the perioperative setting, including recognizing normal vs. pathological findings and the implications for anesthesia management. Apply current guidelines and evidence-based practices to incorporate cardiac biomarkers into preoperative assessment and intraoperative and postoperative care. Engage in case discussions to apply knowledge of cardiac biomarkers in perioperative risk stratification, focusing on individualized patient care and optimizing anesthesia management strategies.
