AB CLINICAL  SCENARIOShould  Patients  Undergoing  Noncardiac  Surgery  Receive  β-Blockers?You  receive  a  request  for  consultation  from  a  general  surgeon  regarding  the  perioperative  management  of  a  66-year-old  man  undergoing  hip  replacement  surgery  in  2  days.  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.
