Abstract
The level of kidney function is an independent predictor of short- and long-term outcome after major noncardiac surgery. In addition, perioperative statin use in patients with kidney disease is associated with a reduction in the short- and long-term all-cause, cardiac, and cerebrocardiovascular mortality.
