Abstract Background and objective Heart failure (HF) is a global health issue, and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is one of the most effective surgical treatments for HF with coronary artery disease. Unfortunately, the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is high in HF patients following CABG, and there are few tools to predict AKI after CABG surgery for such patients. The aim of this study is to establish a nomogram to predict the incidence of AKI after CABG in patients with impaired left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Methods From 2012 to 2017, Clinical information of 1208 consecutive patients who had LVEF< 50% and underwent isolated CABG was collected to establish a derivation cohort. A novel nomogram was developed using the logistic regression model to predict postoperative AKI among these patients. According to the same inclusion criteria and the same period, we extracted the data of patients from 6 other large cardiac centers in China (n = 540) from the China Heart Failure Surgery Registry (China-HFSR) database for external validation of the new model. The nomogram was compared with 3 other available models predicting renal failure after cardiac surgery in terms of calibration, discrimination and net benefit. Results In the derivation cohort (n = 1208), 90 (7.45%) patients were diagnosed with postoperative AKI. The nomogram included 7 independent risk factors: female, increased preoperative creatinine(> 2 mg/dL), LVEF< 35%, previous myocardial infarction (MI), hypertension, cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) used and perioperative blood transfusion. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was 0.738, higher than the other 3 models. By comparing calibration curves and decision curve analyses (DCA) with other models, the novel nomogram showed better calibration and greater net benefit. Among the 540 patients in the validation cohort, 104 (19.3%) had postoperative AKI, and the novel nomogram performed better with respect to calibration, discrimination and net benefit. Conclusions The novel nomogram is a reliable model to predict postoperative AKI following isolated CABG for patients with impaired LVEF.

Introduction: The risk factors for aortic stenosis have been shown to be similar to those for atherosclerosis. Thus, coronary disease is often found simultaneously in patients with aortic stenosis. Our work aims to determine the frequency of coronary disease in a Moroccan population with aortic stenosis while recalling the causes and the prognostic and therapeutic impacts of this association. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study of 148 patients hospitalized at the cardiology center of the military hospital of Rabat over a period of 24 months, during which we analyzed clinical, electrocardiographic, echocardiographic and coronarographic data of the patients in order to evaluate the coronary involvement during aortic stenosis. Results: The mean age of the population was 65 [57, 74] years, the sex ratio was 1.21. Smoking reported in 38.5% of patients was the main modifiable cardiovascular risk factor, followed by hypertension in 35.8% of patients. Dyspnea on exertion was the most frequent reason for consultation at 81%, 64% of which were at least NYHA functional class III, followed by angina, which represented 33% of the series. The aortic stenosis was tight in the majority (mean SAo: 0.8 cm²) and the left ventricular ejection fraction was preserved overall. Coronary artery disease was associated with aortic stenosis in 24% of cases, with predominantly monotruncal involvement (53%) followed by tritruncal involvement (30%). 21.6% of these patients underwent coronary artery bypass grafting concomitantly with surgical replacement of the aortic valve. Conclusion: The incidence of coronary artery disease associated with aortic stenosis is variable according to age. It is higher in European series because of aging. In our relatively younger population, it is lower but not negligible.

Background: Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) is an alternative to coronary artery revascularization and avoids the complications of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The procedure’s success, however, depends on intraoperative hemodynamic stability. Preoperative cardiac function can predict the tolerance to compromised hemodynamics during cardiac surgery. Inability to manage hypotension and low cardiac output while manipulating the heart is the most frequent cause of intraoperative conversion to CPB. Objective: The authors investigated the effects of the preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) on the success of OPCAB surgery and the relation of intraoperative factors to the success of OPCAB surgery. Material and Methods: Medical records of 284 patients who underwent OPCAB surgery in Ramathibodi Hospital between January 2015 and December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Preoperatively, the patients were classified into groups 1 to 4 based on LVEFs of 50% to 70%, 40% to 49%, 30% to 39%, and <30%, respectively. Preoperative characteristics were collected. Intraoperative success of OPCAB surgery, application of inotropes, vasopressor, fluid, and intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), and post-operative outcomes were analyzed and compared among the four LVEF groups. Results: No significant differences in success of OPCAB surgery emerged among the four groups (p=0.430). Intraoperative requirements of IABP were significantly higher for LVEF <30% patients (p=0.001). In addition, the time to extubation was significantly delayed (p=0.001) and the LVEF <30% patients stayed longer in intensive care unit (ICU) (p=0.002) when compared with the good LVEF patients. There were no significant differences in the operative time, amount of intravenous fluid, blood transfusion requirement, or blood loss among the groups. There were no significant differences in major postoperative morbidities. Conclusion: OPCAB surgery can be performed successfully in patients with severe cardiac dysfunction (LVEF <30%) without significant differences from LVEF ≥30% patients, although the need for an intraoperative IABP device and inotropic drugs for hemodynamic support were greater and the extubation times and ICU stays were longer.

Risk Of Death

Soluble ST2 (sST2) is released from myocytes in response to mechanical overload and predicts poor outcome in heart failure and myocardial infarction. We evaluated the capability of early sST2 release after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) to predict mortality during the first postoperative year. We prospectively evaluated sST2 baseline prior to CABG (BL), immediately after CABG (post), and 24h and 72h. The primary endpoint of the study was all-cause mortality at 1 year. Of the 210 patients enrolled, death occurred in 3 (1.5%) within 30 days and 20 (9.5%) by 1 year. sST2 levels did not change immediately post-CABG (BL: 0.32±0.42, post: 0.42±0.46) but became significantly elevated at 24h and 72h (3.39±3.08, 0.95±1.04 ng/ml; P<0.001). Compared to survivors, sST2 was significantly elevated in decedents at 24h (7.68±3.15 vs. 2.78±2.56, P<0.001) and 72h (1.56±1.62 vs. 0.88±0.44, P<0.03). On ROC analysis, sST2 at 24h strongly predicted death at 1 yr (AUC 0.868, 95% CI=0.77– 0.96). In multivariate analysis, sST2 level was a more powerful predictor of death (OR 17.0, P<0.0001) than traditional predictors (STS risk score, age, left ventricular ejection fraction) or other biomarkers (OR 1.59, P<0.0001) including troponin I, CPK-MB, and NT-pBNP. Although operative mortality was better than predicted by STS score, the 9.5% risk of death over 1yr highlights the need to better stratify mortality risk in order to guide appropriate follow-up after hospital discharge. As a strong predictor of 1yr mortality, independent of traditional laboratory or clinical variables, the sST2 level at 24 hrs may help advance this goal.

ObjectivesUpdated knowledge about perioperative myocardial ischaemia (MI) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and treatment of acute graft failure is needed. We analysed main factors associated with perioperative MI and effects of immediate coronary angiography-based treatment strategy on patient outcome.MethodsAmong 1119 consecutive patients with coronary artery disease who underwent isolated CABG between January 2011 and December 2015, 43 (3.8%) patients underwent urgent coronary angiography due to suspected perioperative MI. All the data were prospectively collected and retrospectively analysed. The primary endpoint was 30-day mortality; postoperative left ventricular ejection fraction) and major adverse cardiac events were secondary endpoints.ResultsOverall, 30-day mortality in patients with CABG was 1.4% while in patients who developed perioperative MI was 9% (4 patients). Angiographic findings included incorrect graft anastomosis, graft spasm, dissection, acute coronary artery thrombotic occlusion and ischaemia due to incomplete revascularisation. Emergency reoperation (Redo) was performed in 14 (32%), acute percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in 15 (36%) and conservative treatment (Non-op) in 14 patients. Demographic and preoperative clinical characteristics between the groups were comparable. Postoperative LVEF was significantly reduced in the Redo group (45% post-op vs 53% pre-op) and did not change in groups PCI (56% post-op vs 57% pre-op) and Non-op (58% post-op vs 57% pre-op).ConclusionsUrgent angiography allows identification of the various underlying causes of perioperative MI and urgent treatment when this is needed. Urgent PCI may be associated with improved clinical outcome in patients with early graft failure.
