Key result
Preoperative isolated systolic hypertension in patients undergoing CABG surgery was associated with a 40% increased risk of adverse perioperative outcomes (OR 1.4; 95% CI 1.1-1.7).
Why the study?
Does isolated systolic hypertension increase the risk of adverse perioperative and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing CABG surgery?
Observational (n=2,417)
Yes
Does isolated systolic hypertension increase the risk of adverse perioperative and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing CABG surgery?
Odds Ratio: 1.4 (95% CI 1.1–1.7)
Preoperative isolated systolic hypertension is an independent risk factor associated with a significantly increased risk of perioperative cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing CABG surgery.

Supports preoperative BP evaluation in CABG; leaves open whether treating isolated systolic hypertension reduces risk.
Aronson et al. (2002) conducted an observational in Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery (n=2,417). Isolated systolic hypertension vs. Normal preoperative blood pressure was evaluated on Adverse outcomes including left ventricular dysfunction, cerebral vascular dysfunction or events, renal insufficiency or failure, and all-cause mortality (OR 1.4, 95% CI 1.1-1.7). Preoperative isolated systolic hypertension in patients undergoing CABG surgery was associated with a 40% increased risk of adverse perioperative outcomes (OR 1.4; 95% CI 1.1-1.7).
