The patient has a history of type 2 diabetes and hypertension and is a smoker. He has no history of heart disease. The patient's blood pressure is 135/80 mm Hg. Because the patient has multiple risk factors for heart disease, you are considering whether he should be treated perioperatively with β-blockers to reduce the risk of death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and other vascular complications.
