Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • MINS

    Number of patients who experience myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) defined as any myocardial infarction and any elevated postoperative cardiac troponin judged as resulting from myocardial ischaemia during or within 30 days after noncardiac surgery.

    30 days after randomization

Secondary Outcomes (17)

  • A composite of vascular death, non-fatal MINS, non-fatal stroke, and non-fatal cardiac arrest

    30 days after randomization

  • MINS not fulfilling the 4th universal definition of myocardial infarction

    30 days after randomization

  • Myocardial infarction

    30 days after randomization

  • Vascular death

    30 days after randomization

  • Stroke

    30 days after randomization

  • +12 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (25)

  • Cardiac revascularization

    30 days after randomization

  • Re-hospitalization for vascular reasons

    30 days after randomization

  • Acute myocardial injury according to Fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction

    30 days after randomization

  • +22 more other outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Ivabradine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients fulfilling haemodynamic requirements (i.e. systolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg and sinus rhythm with a heart rate ≥65 beats per minute) will receive 5mg of oral ivabradine at least 1 hour before surgery and the first postoperative dose in the evening or in the morning after surgery, at least 12 hours after the preoperative dose. Starting on the day after surgery, patients will receive 5mg oral ivabradine twice a day and continue this treatment for 7 days after surgery or until hospital discharge.

Drug: Ivabradine

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients fulfilling haemodynamic requirements (i.e. systolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg and sinus rhythm with a heart rate ≥65 beats per minute) will receive matching placebo at least 1 hour before surgery and the first postoperative dose in the evening or in the morning after surgery, at least 12 hours after the preoperative dose. Starting on the day after surgery, patients will receive matching placebo twice a day and continue this treatment for 7 days after surgery or until hospital discharge.

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

Patients fulfilling haemodynamic requirements (i.e. systolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg and sinus rhythm with a heart rate ≥65 beats per minute) will receive 5mg of oral ivabradine at least 1 hour before surgery and the first postoperative dose in the evening or in the morning after surgery, at least 12 hours after the preoperative dose. Starting on the day after surgery, patients will receive 5mg oral ivabradine twice a day and continue this treatment for 7 days after surgery or until hospital discharge.

Ivabradine

Patients fulfilling haemodynamic requirements (i.e. systolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg and sinus rhythm with a heart rate ≥65 beats per minute) will receive matching placebo at least 1 hour before surgery and the first postoperative dose in the evening or in the morning after surgery, at least 12 hours after the preoperative dose. Starting on the day after surgery, patients will receive matching placebo twice a day and continue this treatment for 7 days after surgery or until hospital discharge.
