Early Outcome in Unstable Angina Patients With Low EF After CABG
Egypt30 participantsStarted 2017-09-04
Plain-language summary
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) among patients with reduced myocardial function remains a surgical challenge despite improvement in surgical technique, myocardial protection and postoperative care. Such cases are considered as high risk and associated with a higher peri-operative mortality than those with normal left ventricular function (LVF). Patients with low EF are at higher risks of sudden death, ventricular arrhythmia, and worsening heart failure due to recurrent ischemia. Therefore,early recognition of patients at risk for a worse outcome plays a pivotal role in the decision making process, allowing the prompt institution of an adequate support.
