Preoperative risk stratification may inform consent and planning in elective CABG; hypothesis-generating for targeted interventions to reduce PMV.

Population

10,977 consecutive patients undergoing elective primary coronary bypass surgery

Outcome

Prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV), defined as the need for intubation and mechanical ventilation for >72 h after completion of the operationhard clinical

Prolonged mechanical ventilation after elective coronary bypass surgery is associated with reduced survival and is predicted by factors such as NYHA class > II, renal dialysis, older age, reduced FEV1, and severe obesity.
