title: [Cardiac risk in surgery. A review and guidelines for risk evaluation and reduction of cardiac risk in general surgery].
abstract: Cardiac complications occur with an incidence of 2-6% and are a main cause (15-20%) of mortality after non-cardiac surgery. Cardiac risk should be determined and reduced by treatment preoperatively and by an intraoperative and postoperative care that has been adjusted to the increased risk. This review provides recommendations concerning risk evaluation and management.
