Morbimortalidade em octogenários submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização miocárdica

Abstract: Background: Given the progressive increase in longevity and the need of an increasingly elderly population to undergo myocardial revascularization surgery (MRS), it becomes necessary to know its risks and benefits.

“…As a consequence of older patient referral for cardiac surgery, cardiac pathology is often more considerable. Indeed, we found 36.3% of octogenarians received combined cardiac procedures (predominantly AVR and CABG), which is among the highest rates compared to previous studies [ 10 ]-[ 12 ] and associated with longer CPB and aortic cross clamp time. It is not surprising that octogenarians with more complex procedures have higher risk for major post-operative complications and consequently greater health service utilization (i.e.…”

“…Operating on this specific demographic is not only a challenge to cardiac surgeons but also a challenge to cardiologists, anesthesiologists, CVICU intensivists, and the whole medical system [ 11 ]. Previous studies have shown that the in-hospital mortality in octogenarians undergoing isolated CABG, AVR and MVR were 6.8%-14.3% [ 5 ],[ 12 ]-[ 14 ], 4.5%-12.6% [ 6 ],[ 15 ]-[ 17 ], and 2.7%-18.5% [ 7 ],[ 18 ], respectively. In a multi-center retrospective study gathering data from 22 high volume cardiac centers in the United States, the reported in-hospital mortality rates for octogenarians after cardiac surgery were 8.1% for isolated CABG, 10.1% for combined CABG and AVR, and 19.6% for combined CABG and MVR [ 19 ].…”
