Background/Aims: Preoperative N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a useful predictor of postoperativecardiovascular complications. The present study investigated whether blood NT-proBNP values are suitable for predictingpostoperative cardiovascular complications after non-cardiac surgery in elderly patients showing normal left ventricular (LV)function on preoperative echocardiograms. Methods: This study was performed by analyzing the medical records of elderly patients referred to the cardiology department for thepurpose of assessing their cardiac function before orthopedic surgery. Of the patients who underwent echocardiography and NTproBNPassessment simultaneously, 275 patients aged ≥ 70 years and with an LV ejection fraction of ≥ 55% were included in the study. Results: Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) occurred in 33 (12%) of the 275 patients, and theNT-proBNP concentration was higher in patients with complications than in those without complications (1,904.20 ± 2,300.23 vs. 530.58 ± 882.27 pg/mL, p < 0.01). The ROC area under the curve was 0.756 (95% confidence interval 0.701-0.805, p < 0.001) withan optimal cutoff of 416.3 pg/mL (69.7% sensitivity, 67.36% specificity). A multivariate analysis showed that a preoperative age of> 80 years (odds ratio, 2.313; p = 0.047) and an increased blood NT-proBNP concentration (odds ratio, 3.189; p = 0.009) wereindependent risk factors for the prediction of MACCEs. Conclusions: Although elderly patients scheduled to undergo non-cardiac surgery may show normal LV systolic function onechocardiography, measurement of their preoperative blood NT-proBNP concentration is useful for predicting MACCEs occurringafter non-cardiac surgery.
