Presentation / Conference
Hinton, J., Augustine, M., Gabara, L., Mariathas, M., Allan, R., Borca, F., …Curzen, N. (2021, June). 37 Incidence and one year outcome of periprocedural myocardial infarction following cardiac surgery: are the universal definition and scai criteria fit for purpose?. Paper presented at British Cardiovascular Society Virtual Annual Conference, ‘Cardiology and the Environment’, 7–10 June 2021

Introduction The diagnosis and clinical implication of periprocedural myocardial infarction (PPMI) following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is contentious, especially given its importance in the interpretation of trial data. Two accepted defi...
