Abstract Background Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is frequently performed in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) together with severe coronary artery disease, after which, patients with ESRD have higher surgical risk and poorer long-term outcomes. We report our experience in patients with ESRD who survived in CABG and identify predictors of long-term outcomes. Methods We retrospectively investigated 93 consecutive patients with ESRD who survived to discharge after isolated CABG between January 2005 and December 2016 at our institution. Long-term outcomes, including all-cause mortality after discharge, readmission due to major adverse cardiac events, and reintervention, were evaluated. Predictors affecting long-term outcomes were also analyzed. Results The rates of freedom from all-cause mortality after discharge in 1, 3, 5, and 10 years were 92.1, 81.3, 71.9, and 34.9%, respectively. The rates of freedom from readmission due to major adverse cardiac events in 1, 3, 5, and 10 years were 90.7, 79.1, 69.9, and 55.6%, respectively. The rates of freedom from reintervention in 1, 3, 5, and 10 years were 95.3, 86.5, 79.0, and 66.6%, respectively. Postoperative β-blocker and statin use significantly improved overall long-term survival (β-blocker, p = 0.013; statin, p = 0.009). After case–control matching, patients who received statins showed better long-term survival than those without statins. The comparison of long-term survival between patients with and without β-blockers showed no significant difference after matching. Conclusions After CABG, dialysis patients who survived to discharge had acceptable long-term overall survival. Post-CABG statin use in dialysis patients is a predictor of better long-term survival.

Little is known about the frequency and clinical implications of postoperative atrial fibrillation in military veterans who undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We examined long-term survival data, clinical outcomes, and associated risk factors in this population. We retrospectively reviewed baseline, intraoperative, and postoperative data from 1,248 consecutive patients with similar baseline risk profiles who underwent primary isolated CABG at a Veterans Affairs hospital from October 2006 through March 2013. Multivariable logistic regression identified predictors of postoperative atrial fibrillation. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate long-term survival (the primary outcome measure), morbidity, and length of hospital stay. Postoperative atrial fibrillation occurred in 215 patients (17.2%). Independent predictors of this sequela were age ≥65 years (odds ratios [95% confidence intervals], 1.7 [1.3–2.4] for patients of age 65–75 yr and 2.6 [1.4–4.8] for patients >75 yr) and body mass index ≥30 kg/m2 (2.0 [1.2–3.2]). Length of stay was longer for patients with postoperative atrial fibrillation than for those without (12.7 ± 6.6 vs 10.3 ± 8.9 d; P ≤0.0001), and the respective 30-day mortality rate was higher (1.9% vs 0.4%; P=0.014). Seven-year survival rates did not differ significantly. Older and obese patients are particularly at risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation after CABG. Patients who develop the sequela have longer hospital stays than, but similar long-term survival rates to, patients who do not.

Introduction: We analyzed the national Veteran Affairs (VA) data to evaluate the association of preoperative glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) and long-term outcome after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods: Between January 2007 - December 2014, Veterans with diabetes mellitus (DM) that underwent isolated CABG were divided on into three groups (I: HbA1c < 8%, II: HbA1c 8 - 10% and III: HbA1c > 10%). Demographic and clinical differences between groups were evaluated with the t-test or chi-square test. The relationship of preoperative HbA1c and long-term survival was evaluated with a multivariable proportional hazards model; restricted cubic splines were used to model non-linear effects. The cumulative incidence of secondary end-points (myocardial infarction, urgent revascularization) for each group was modeled as a competing-risk analysis. Results: Overall, 3,210 patients (mean age 64.6 years, male 98.8%; insulin dependent - 53%) with DM underwent isolated CABG. Group III patients were younger (61 vs 65 years in group I). Median HbA1c levels were similar between races (white - 7.3% and blacks - 7.35%). Insulin dependence was higher in group III (79.3%) vs groups I (43.5%) and II (69.9%). In groups I,II and III, 5 and 10 year survival was 76.2%, 74.4%, 75.4% and 38.9%, 36.9% and 30.2% respectively. HbA1c was observed to have a J-shaped association with mortality with values < 6% and > 9% at higher risk of death. Left ventricular systolic dysfunction [HR 1.5 (1.3 - 1.7)], prior myocardial infarction [HR 1.3 (1.2 - 1.5)] and insulin dependence [HR 1.4 (1.2 - 1.5)] were also associated with lower survival. Myocardial infarction was observed in 9.8% , 13.4% and 12.8% patients in groups I, II and III respectively. Conclusions: Pre-operative HbA1c impacts long-term survival among diabetic patients undergoing CABG. We observed a J-shaped relationship between HbA1c and survival with values < 6% and > 9% associated with increased mortality.

The current investigation aimed to evaluate long-term survival in patients undergoing isolated and combined coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with concomitant surgical ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF). Procedural data from KROK (Polish National Registry of Cardiac Surgery Procedures) were retrospectively collected. Eleven thousand three hundred sixteen patients with baseline AF (72.4% men, mean age 69.6 ± 7.9) undergoing isolated and combined CABG surgery between 2006–2019 in 37 reference centers across Poland and included in the registry were analyzed. The median follow-up was four years (3.7 IQR 1.3–6.8). Over a 12-year study period, there was a significant survival benefit (Hazard Ratio (HR) 0.83; (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.73–0.95); p = 0.005) with concomitant ablation as compared to no concomitant ablation. After rigorous propensity matching (LOGIT model, 432 pairs), concomitant surgical ablation was associated with over 25% improved survival in the overall analysis: HR 0.74; (95% CIs: 0.56–0.98); p = 0.036. The benefit of concomitant ablation was maintained in the subgroups, yet the most benefit was appraised in low-risk patients (EuroSCORE < 2, p = 0.003) with the three-vessel disease (p < 0.001) and without other comorbidities. Ablation was further associated with significantly improved survival in patients undergoing CABG with mitral valve surgery (HR 0.62; (95% CIs: 0.52–0.74); p < 0.001) and in patients in whom complete revascularization was not achieved: HR 0.43; (95% CIs: 0.24–0.79); p = 0.006.

Abstract OBJECTIVES Our goal was to analyse the outcomes in a patient population using a standardized technique for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) consisting of total arterial myocardial revascularization utilizing the in situ skeletonized bilateral thoracic artery for left coronary circulation. We also explored potential predictors of long-time unfavourable outcomes. METHODS Patients undergoing total arterial myocardial revascularization using in situ skeletonized bilateral thoracic artery for left coronary circulation between January 1997 and May 2017 were included prospectively in this study. The median follow-up (100% complete) was 103 months (interquartile range 61–189 months) and ranged from 1 to 245 months. RESULTS A total of 1325 consecutive patients were recruited. During the follow-up period, there were 131 deaths (9.8%), 146 repeat revascularizations (11.0%) and 229 major adverse cardiac events (17.2%). The 18-year freedom from major adverse cardiac events was 62.6 ± 9.3%, 62.5 ± 6.3% and 53.9 ± 11.0%, respectively. Multivariable models showed that a left ventricular ejection fraction ≤35%, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, peripheral vascular disease (P &lt; 0.001), chronic kidney disease and age ≥80 years (P = 0.002) were independent predictors of diminished long-term survival. Moreover, peripheral vascular disease and off-pump coronary artery bypass (both, P &lt; 0.001) predicted repeat revascularization. Finally, age ≥80 years, peripheral vascular disease, left ventricular ejection fraction ≤35%, off-pump coronary artery bypass and chronic pulmonary obstructive disease were independent predictors of major adverse cardiac events during the long-term follow-up period (all, P &lt; 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Coronary artery bypass using the in situ skeletonized bilateral thoracic artery for left coronary circulation configuration for total arterial myocardial revascularization resulted in satisfactory long-term results with a low incidence of death and late events and may represent a technique of choice in selected patients having CABG. Larger and long-term prospective studies are, however, warranted.
