Cardiac surgery patients with lactic acidosis experience significantly higher mortality rates, with 34.1% versus 7.7% in non-lactic acidosis cases.
The length of hospital stay is longer for patients with lactic acidosis, averaging 10.20 days compared to 4.05 days in non-lactic acidosis groups.
Descriptive exploratory analysis reveals the link between lactic acidosis and complications in postoperative cardiac patients, emphasizing the need for careful monitoring and management of acidosis during surgery and recovery periods. Further studies are necessary to explore the relationship between lactic acidosis and negative outcomes in depth.
