Study population: Data were gathered from electronic medical records (EMRs) for all patients undergoing noncardiac surgery at the First Medical Center of the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital (PLAGH) from January 1, 2008 to August 1, 2019. Patients with a surgical duration of less than 30 minutes or age <18 years were excluded. Input data elements were extracted from the patient anesthesia and medical records. The survival data one year after surgery were obtained from medical records and telephone follow-up records confirmed by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CCDC)

Who may be able to join

  • patients above 18 yrs undergoing noncardiac surgery at the First Medical Center of the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital (PLAGH) from January 1, 2008 to August 1, 2019.

Who cannot join

  • surgical duration of less than 30 minutes
  • incomplete data

Read the detailed description

Objective: This study aimed to investigate new-onset heart blocks after noncardiac surgery, identify risk factors, and develop a prediction model.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study included 281,497 patients aged 18 or older who underwent noncardiac surgery at a single center between Jan 2008 and Aug 2019. The main outcome was postoperative new-onset heart blocks within one year, including atrioventricular and bundle blocks. Prognostic impact was assessed using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and time-dependent Cox regression analysis. Perioperative data was used for machine learning models (logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest, decision tree). Model performance was measured using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Block and Risk Factor, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

New-onset heart blocks (time frame: within one year after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Nov 2023.
