ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To describe the long-term survival of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and to analysis the risk factors of operative mortality and long-term survival.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2001 to December 2012, 2 831 patients undergoing off-pump CABG in Peking University People's Hospital, 2 099 cases (74.1%) of them were male, the average age was (63±9) years. The perioperative data was retrospectively collected. Binary Logistic regression was used to find the risk factors which affect the operative mortality. Follow-up evaluation was completed regularly. Kaplan-Meier survival curve, Log-rank test and Cox regression model were used to find out factors which affect the long-term result.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Totally 2 831 patients underwent isolating off-pump CABG, in whom 45 patients died perioperative, 2 786 patients discharged successfully. Binary Logistic regression showed that sex (female) (χ2=4.4, OR=2.307, P=0.035), peripheral vascular disease (χ2=17.4, OR=6.616, P=0.000), New York Heart Association (NYHA) class grade≥3 (χ2=10.5, OR=3.491, P=0.001), ejection fraction≤40% (χ2=16.9, OR=5.230, P=0.000), emergency surgery (χ2=11.9, OR=5.127, P=0.001) are risk factors of operative mortality. The follow-up time was (74±44) months. Totally 107 patients were lost from follow-up, 109 patients died in follow-up. The survival rate at 1, 3, 5 , 8 and 10 years was 97.2%, 95.5%, 94.3%, 93.6%, 92.1%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that age (>65 years), hypertension, renal insufficiency, peripheral vascular disease, history of myocardial infarction, NYHA class grade≥3 and emergency surgery were risk factors of the long-term survival (χ2=8.150 to 88.241, P<0.05). Cox regression analysis showed that age (>65 years) (χ2=12.1, RR=2.295, P=0.000), renal insufficiency (χ2=12.3, RR=3.160, P=0.000), peripheral vascular disease (χ2=42.5, RR=5.626, P=0.000), NYHA class grade≥3 (χ2=9.1, RR=1.994, P=0.002) and emergency surgery (χ2=5.5, RR=2.247, P=0.019) were independent risk factors that affect the long-term survival.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Sex (female), peripheral vascular disease, NYHA class grade≥3, ejection fraction≤40%, emergency surgery are risk factors of operative mortality. Age (>65 years), renal insufficiency, peripheral vascular disease, NYHA class grade≥3 and emergency surgery are independent risk factors that affect the long-term survival. Off-pump CABG has favorable perioperative and long-term outcome, and it definitely is a very safe and effective technique for coronary artery revascularization.</p>

Objective:To explore the prognosis and risk factors for conversion from off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) to coronary bypass grafting (CABG) during surgery. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 2613 patients with elective OPCAB in our hospital from 2001 to 2012, there were 62 (2.37%) patients converted to CABG during the operation as Conversion group, the rest 2551 patients were set as Non-conversion group. The peril-operative baseline clinical data and prognosis condition were compared between 2 groups. The risk factors causing the in-operative conversion were studied with binary logistic regression analysis. Results: The total conversion rate was 2.37%, including 42 patients of hemodynamic instability, 6 with dififculty of target vessel exposure, 9 with malignant arrhythmia, 3 with graft occlusion and 2 patients with other reasons. Compared with Non-conversion group, the Conversion group had increased post-operative drainage and ventilation time, higher rates of second thoracotomy for stop bleeding and higher peril-operative mortality. Binary logistic regression analysis indicated that chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, previous history of CABG, NYHA class≥3, LVEF≤40%and left main disease were the independent risk factors for in-operative conversion. Conclusion: Conversion from OPCAB to CABG during the operation would be result in signiifcantly higher morbidity and mortality in relevant patients.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of antibiotics after coronary artery bypass.METHODS Forty patients were assigned into two groups,vancomycin group and cefradine group.Each included 20 patients.We compared the infection cases,cost of hospitalization,and cost of medicine after CABG.RESULTS There were no difference of(infection) between two groups,the cost of hospitalization was fewer in cefradine group.(CONCLUSIONS) The short-term use of cefradine after CABG could achieve the goals of preventing infection of CABG,and save medical resources.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the risk factors impeding early extubation after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) in Chinese patients, so that to identify the applicable patients for "fast track recovery". Methods Clinical data of 680 consecutive patients who had received OPCAB were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into two groups according to the time of extubation (group Ⅰ,n=333, extubation was performed within 12 h postoperation; group Ⅱ,n=347, extubation failed in 12 h). Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine risk factors prolonging mechanical ventilation. Results Univariate analyses showed significant difference between the two groups in the percentages of patients over 70 years [25% (84/333) vs 39% (136/347), ?2=15.148, P=0.000], with history of stroke [14% (46/333) vs 22% (75/347), ?2=7.068, P=0.008], with LVEF70 (OR=2.003), LVEF70, severe coronary artery lesion, emergency operation, and poor cardiac function are risk factors impeding early extubation. "Fast track recovery" protocol is applicable to young patients who have good cardiac function without left main lesion and do not need IABP during perioperative period.
