PHRI researchers will be presenting their latest research at the 7th annual Perioperative Care Congress (PCC 2025), taking place November 7–9, 2025, at the David Braley Health Sciences Centre in Hamilton, ON.
The congress brings together global experts to explore advances in surgical risk assessment, management of perioperative complications, and emerging clinical evidence in perioperative medicine.

Scientist Emilie Belley-Côté:
- Management of atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery
Scientist Flavia Borges:
- Value of preoperative troponin measurement in patients with a hip fracture
Senior Scientist PJ Devereaux:

- Continuation vs discontinuation of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors before major noncardiac surgery: the Stop-or-Not Randomized Clinical Trial
- Campfire session: who and how to screen for perioperative covert stroke after noncardiac surgery
Associate Scientist Emmanuelle Duceppe:

Scientist Maura Marcucci:
- How is myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery managed
Scientist Michael McGillion:
- PVC-RAM-3 Late-Breaking Trial Presentation – Effects of virtual care with remote automated monitoring in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery with an expected length of hospital stay ≤3 days
