Key result
Traditional preoperative risk factors consistently predict higher in-hospital mortality after CABG.
Why the study?
Advances in anesthesia and surgical techniques have led to enrollment of higher-risk patients for CABG, necessitating periodic updating of traditional predictors of early mortality and morbidity.
What are the current preoperative predictors of early mortality and morbidity after CABG?
What are the current preoperative predictors of early mortality and morbidity after CABG?
This review highlights the current status of preoperative predictors for early mortality and morbidity after CABG to guide perioperative care.
Risk stratification may guide CABG perioperative care; leaves open validation of models in contemporary high-risk cohorts.
The most serious early adverse events after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) include in-hospital mortality, low cardiac output, perioperative myocardial infarction, renal dysfunction, stroke, atrial fibrillation and sternal wound infection.Prediction of outcome after CABG has a considerable importance which constitutes guidance for proper perioperative care and improved postoperative outcome.Advances in anesthesia and surgical techniques play a role in enrollment of patients with higher risk for CABG which indicates periodic updating of the traditional predictors of outcome.This review tries to highlight the current status of the important preoperative predictors of early mortality and morbidity after CABG.

Kamal et al. (2017) conducted a review in Coronary artery disease requiring CABG. Preoperative risk factors (e.g., age, gender, comorbidities) was evaluated on In-hospital mortality and morbidity. Traditional preoperative risk factors, including older age, female gender, diabetes, renal impairment, and low ejection fraction, remain important predictors of in-hospital mortality after CABG.
