title: [Assessment and reduction of risk of cardiac complications of noncardiac surgery].
abstract: One of actual problems of modern cardiology is assessment and correction of risk of cardiac complications of noncardiac surgery. Recommendations on this issue propose reduction of preoperative examination and wide use of drug therapy, primarily statins and β-blockers. However, new data accumulated in recent years, as well as the recognition of scientific inconsistency of the DECREASE research series, force a new outlook at the problem. In this review in light of new facts the following important issues of perioperative medicine are discussed: administration of β-blockers and statins, volume of preoperative cardiac examination, value of preventive myocardial revascularization.
