Nepal89 participantsStarted 2023-07-01

Plain-language summary

The burden of coronary artery disease (CAD) is increasing in the Nepalese population. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains one of the most frequently performed surgical interventions for the management of advanced CAD. Despite this, there is a paucity of data regarding the incidence and determinants of surgical site infections (SSIs) following CABG in the Nepalese context. This study aimed to determine the incidence of SSIs after CABG surgery in the Nepalese population.
