Predicts perioperative MI/cardiac arrest risk using logistic regression
When to Use
Patients >= 18 years undergoing non-cardiac surgery under general anesthesia
More granular risk estimate than RCRI — accounts for surgery type and ASA class
Useful when RCRI score is borderline (1-2) and further stratification is needed
When NOT to Use
Cardiac surgery patients (different risk profile)
Procedures under local anesthesia only
Emergency surgery where result will not change management
Age (years)
years
Surgery Type
ASA Physical Status
Functional Status
Creatinine
