Objectives: Ÿ To outline the key components of a pre-operative cardiac risk assessment. Ÿ To review the major guidelines utilized to assess patients’ surgical risks. Ÿ To discuss the perioperative management of surgical patients to prevent cardiac and pulmonary complications. Ÿ To review the utility of biomarkers in the pre- and post-operative period.
