23 Given this, we used each hospital’s risk-adjusted coronary artery bypass graft mortality because it is a validated quality measure and would be inclusive of all patients in our dataset. Statistical Analysis The overall goal of this analysis was to evaluate the association between ho...
The mean age was 73 years and with a high prevalence of diabetes (58.9 %), chronic kidney disease (42.1 %), prior re-vascularization (coronary artery bypass graft surgery [36.4 %] or prior PCI [32.7 %]). Acute coronary syndrome was the primary indication for PCI in over 50 % of the ...

Arrhythmias are common after cardiac surgery such as coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Although most of these arrhythmias are transient and have a benign course, it may represent a significant source of morbidity and mortality. Postoperative arrhy
Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) placement was significantly more often performed in site II (site I, 3.6 % vs. site II, 16.7 %, p = 0.02). For NSTEMI only, rates of intervention were nearly similar in cTn-positive patients ensured by the first or second control (71.6 vs. 87.5 %;...

ContextRisk factors for perioperative mortality after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery have been extensively studied. However, which
BACKGROUND: It appears that the medical profile of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery has changed. The impact of this demographic shift on CABG outcomes, such as sternal wound dehiscence, is unclear. OBJECTIVES: To quantify the incidence and trends of sternal wound deh...
Within the EuroDRG project, we define a CABG case as admission to hospital of a patient who undergoes a coronary artery bypass graft surgery (procedure code 36.1 in ICD-9-CMc). Patients aged under one year are excluded from the analysis. In order to compare structural differences in patient...
Coronary artery bypass graft surgery for the prevention of sudden cardiac death Ventricular arrhythmias are responsible for most cases of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and account for at least 50% of the mortality of patients with ischemic heart failure. Since ischemia is the... R Autschbach,V ...
