Co morbidity as a risk factor for CABG patients of elderly and senile age

Abstract

Materials and methods: 152 patients (men were 69.7%, women30.3%) were observed who underwent planned surgery for coronary artery disease in the Altai regional clinical hospital. The mean age of patients at the time of surgery was 60.4±7.1 years. The proportion of patients over 60 years of age amounted to 44.1% (67 patients). Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was performed according to the indications in conditions of artificial circulation and cold cardioplegia. All patients underwent clinical and instrumental examination taking into account Recommendations for myocardial revascularization (2018). Patients who underwent repeated CABG, emergency CABG, combined interventions on coronary arteries, myocardium and heart valves were excluded from the study. The index of comorbidity was assessed by Charlson ME et al. as modified by R. A. Deyo et al. The risk of operational lethality was assessed using European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation II (2011) (http://www.euroscore.org/).
