Predictive Factors of Long-Term Stay in the ICU after Cardiac Surgery: Logistic CASUS Score, Serum Bilirubin Dosage and Extracorporeal Circulation Time

Abstract: ObjectiveTo test the capacity of the Logistic CASUS Score on the second postoperative day, the total serum bilirubin dosage on the second postoperative day and the extracorporeal circulation time, as possible predictive factors of long-term stay in Intensive Care Unit after cardiac surgery.MethodsEight-two patients submitted to cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation were selected. The Logistic CASUS Score on the second postoperative day was calculated and bilirubin dosage on the second postoperative d… Show more

“…A study using patients with sepsis [ 35 ] reported that increased mortality was associated with higher serum total bilirubin level compared with lower serum total bilirubin level (≤1 mg/dL). Another study [ 36 ] reported that a higher mean value of total bilirubin level on the second day postoperation was associated with longer LOS in the ICU among patients who had undergone cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation. In our study, together with APACHE II score, serum total bilirubin level was significantly associated with ICU LOS.…”

“…Despite the beneficial effects of CABG in controlling the signs and symptoms of coronary artery disease [ 2 ] , this surgery has many short and long-term complications. Because of these complications, all patients after CABG must be treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) [ 4 , 5 ] . The length of stay (LOS) of a patient after CABG in the ICU depends on the patient's individual characteristics, pre- and intraoperative care, complications, and events during surgery, as well as hospital policies and regulations.…”

“…In ICUs, physicians must control these parameters, care for subjects' needs, and prevent complications in order to achieve the optimal conditions of these patients. Therefore, professionals must make elaborate decisions in some situations and make modifications in treatment [15][16][17]. These situations cause high pressure and intense burden that can cause medical errors and may negatively influence patients' outcomes [18,19].…”
