Study Details

Brief summary:

This prospective cohort study aims to determine whether the addition of the 6MWT to the RCRI score improves the risk prediction of postoperative cardiovascular outcomes after noncardiac surgery. In addition, this study will assess whether the patients' reported MET score corresponds to the determined MET score from the 6MWT distance completed.
