Registered outcomes5
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants With a Composite Outcome Consisted of Myocardial Injury After Non-cardiac Surgery (MINS), Non-fatal Cardiac Arrest, and All-cause Mortality | From the end of surgery to 30 days after surgery | The primary outcome was a composite of myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery, non-fatal cardiac arrest, and all-cause mortality within 30 days of surgery. Myocardial injury was diagnosed when available troponin concentrations exceeded generation-specific and type-specific thresholds and were apparently of ischaemic origin (ie, no other obvious cause for artifactual elevation). We used the following thresholds based on available literature at time of adjudication: 1) non-high-sensitivity (fourth-generation) troponin T ≥0.03 ng/ml2; 2) high-sensitivity troponin T ≥65 ng/L; or high-sensitivity troponin T 20-64 ng/L and an increase ≥5 ng/L from baseline3; 3) high-sensitivity troponin I (Abbott assay) is ≥75 ng/L4; 4) high-sensitivity troponin I (Siemens assay) is ≥60 ng/L5; or, 5) troponin I (other assays) greater than local 99th percentiles. Myocardial infarction diagnosis required both troponin elevation and at least one diagnostic symptom or sign. |
| Secondary | Deep or Organ-space Surgical Site Infection | From the end of surgery to 30 days after surgery | Surgical site infection is defined by US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria. It is consisted of superficial infection, deep infection, and organ-space infection. Superficial infection: Infection involves only skin or subcutaneous tissue of the incision. Deep infection: Infection appears to be related to the operation and infection involves deep soft tissues (e.g., fascial and muscle layers) of the incision. Organ-space infection: Infection involves any part of the anatomy (e.g., organs or spaces), other than the incision, which was opened or manipulated during an operation. |
| Secondary | Number of Patients Requiring Intraoperative Transfusion | From surgery start to surgery end | intraoperative transfusion will be yes if this patient received more than 0 unit of red blood cells. |
| Secondary | Duration of Hospitalization | From the day of surgery to the day of discharge, or 30 days after surgery if the patients is still hospitalized | The length of hospital stay in days, censored at 30 days |
| Secondary | Readmission | From the end of surgery to 30 days after surgery | Readmission to a hospital within a month of surgery |
