Implication

Urgency of CABG was associated with early mortality only; supports perioperative risk stratification while leaving longer-term effects open.

Does the urgency of operation affect mortality in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery?

Population

2000 patients in western Sweden who underwent coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) between June 1988 and June 1991, without concomitant procedures or re-operations. 186 (9.3%) of the operations were acute.

Intervention

Urgent to emergency coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG)

Comparator

Elective coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG)

Outcome

Mortality during the 2-year period after CABG (including early mortality and 30-day to 2-year mortality)hard clinical

The urgency of CABG is a strong independent predictor of early mortality, but it does not significantly impact mortality between 30 days and 2 years post-operation.
