Summary

This study followed over 1,200 adults having major abdominal surgery to find blood markers that could predict serious heart problems or death within 30 days and one year after surgery. Researchers measured heart injury and other factors to improve risk prediction. The goal is to help doctors identify high-risk patients earlier and potentially prevent complications.
