Brief summary

Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is associated with postoperative respiratory depression. In this study we aimed at investigating perioperative parameters that could predict the nadir of postoperative respiratory function impairment.

Detailed description

Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is a principal revascularization option for ischemic heart disease and the principal modality for invasive treatment of coronary artery disease. Postoperative pulmonary complications are the most frequent and significant contributor to length of hospitalization, morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study is to search for perioperative parameters that could predict the degree of impairment of respiratory function after CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Postoperative Respiratory Depression After Cardiac Surgery9 daysRespiratory function is assessed through maximal inspiratory (MIP) and expiratory (MEP) pressures and peak expiratory flow (PEF) determined 1 day before surgery and one postoperative week.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Intraoperative parameters after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG)1 dayIntraoperative parameters are monitored, including volume of cardioplegia, CPB duration, aortic cross-clamp time, number of grafts.
Perioperative parameters after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG)3 daysICU blood pressure is monitored
