Multicenter Study Observational Study
Maintenance of beta-blockers and cardiac surgery-related outcomes: a prospective propensity-matched multicentre analysis.
We investigated the effects of maintaining beta-blockers on the day of surgery on the incidence of atrial fibrillation and postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. ⋯ NCT04769752.

Multicenter Study
Development and validation of the Ex-Care BR model: a multicentre initiative for identifying Brazilian surgical patients at risk of 30-day in-hospital mortality.
Surgical risk stratification is crucial for enhancing perioperative assistance and allocating resources efficiently. However, existing models may not capture the complexity of surgical care in Brazil. Using data from various healthcare settings nationwide, we developed a new risk model for 30-day in-hospital mortality (the Ex-Care BR model). ⋯ NCT05796024.

Multicenter Study
Association of preoperative beta-blocker use and cardiac complications after major noncardiac surgery: a prospective cohort study.
Cardiac complications after major noncardiac surgery are common and associated with high morbidity and mortality. How preoperative use of beta-blockers may impact perioperative cardiac complications remains unclear. ⋯ NCT02573532.
