Key result
Mechanical ventilation for more than eight hours after cardiac surgery was independently associated with mortality (multivariate HR 0.4, 95% CI 0.2-0.6, p=0.01).
Why the study?
Prolonged treatment of cardiac surgery patients in the ICU worsens clinical outcomes and leads to mortality, prompting evaluation of the impact of mechanical ventilation time.

Dezidério et al. (2025) conducted a cohort in Cardiac surgery (Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting) (n=110). Mechanical ventilation > 8 hours vs. Mechanical ventilation < 8 hours was evaluated on Mortality (HR 0.4, 95% CI 0.2-0.6, p=0.01). Mechanical ventilation for more than eight hours after cardiac surgery was independently associated with mortality (multivariate HR 0.4, 95% CI 0.2-0.6, p=0.01).
