Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a prospective observational study enrolling adults aged 18 and older who are undergoing elective lumbar stabilization surgery at Ankara City Hospital Bilkent. Participants with recent acute myocardial infarction, prior cardiac surgery, or chronic troponin elevation are excluded. Investigators will follow patients through the perioperative period to record cardiac events, troponin changes, and clinical risk factors. The main goals are to measure the incidence of myocardial injury after noncardiac (lumbar) surgery and identify associated risk factors.
