Preoperative B-type natriuretic peptide is as independent predictor of ventricular dysfunction and mortality after primary coronary artery bypass grafting.

ABSTRACT: Elevated B-type natriuretic peptide is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in ambulatory patients with congestive heart failure or acute coronary syndromes. Its utility in predicting adverse cardiac surgical outcomes is less certain. We hypothesized that preoperative plasma B-type natriuretic peptide would independently predict in-hospital postoperative ventricular dysfunction, hospital stay, and up to 5-year mortality after primary coronary artery bypass grafting.This is a prospective, longitudinal study of 1023 patients at two institutions undergoing primary coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass. Ventricular dysfunction was defined as requirement for at least two inotropes or new intra-aortic balloon pump or ventricular assist device support after coronary artery bypass grafting. Multivariable analyses assessed independent roles of preoperative B-type natriuretic peptide in predicting postoperative ventricular dysfunction, hospital stay, and 5-year all-cause mortality.Preoperative plasma B-type natriuretic peptide concentration predicted ventricular dysfunction, hospital stay, and mortality in univariate and multivariable analyses. Logistic regression demonstrated preoperative B-type natriuretic peptide to independently predict ventricular dysfunction (odds ratio 1.92, 95% confidence interval 1.12-3.29, P = .018), after adjustment for preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction, congestive heart failure severity, and other clinical predictors. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models showed preoperative B-type natriuretic peptide to independently predict hospital stay (hazard ratio 1.42, 95% confidence interval 1.18-1.72, P = .0002) and mortality (hazard ratio 1.89, 95% confidence interval 1.08-3.33, P = .026).Preoperative plasma B-type natriuretic peptide independently predicted in-hospital ventricular dysfunction, hospital stay, and up to 5-year all-cause mortality after primary coronary artery bypass grafting.

Project description:BackgroundHeart-type fatty acid binding protein (hFABP) functions as a myocardial fatty acid transporter and is released into the circulation early after myocardial injury. We hypothesized that hFABP is superior to conventional cardiac biomarkers for predicting early perioperative myocardial injury after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.MethodsA prospective cohort study of 1298 patients undergoing primary CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was performed at 2 institutions. Four plasma myocardial injury biomarkers (hFABP; cardiac troponin I [cTnI]; creatine kinase, MB [CK-MB] fraction; and myoglobin) were measured at 7 perioperative time points. The association among perioperative cardiac biomarkers and ventricular dysfunction, hospital length of stay (HLOS), and up to 5-year postoperative mortality (median 3.3 years) was assessed using Cox proportional hazard models. We defined in-hospital ventricular dysfunction as a new requirement for 2 or more inotropes, or new placement of an intraaortic balloon pump, or ventricular assist device either during the intraoperative period after the patient separated from CPB or postoperatively in the intensive care unit.ResultsThe positive and negative predictive values of mortality for hFABP are 13% (95% confidence interval [CI], 9%-19%) and 95% (95% CI, 94%-96%), respectively, which is higher than for cTnI and CK-MB. After adjusting for clinical predictors, both postoperative day (POD) 1 and peak hFABP levels were independent predictors of ventricular dysfunction (P < 0.0001), HLOS (P < 0.05), and 5-year mortality (P < 0.0001) after CABG surgery. Furthermore, POD1 and peak hFABP levels were significantly superior to other evaluated biomarkers for predicting mortality. In a repeated-measures analysis, hFABP outperformed all other models of fit for HLOS. Patients with POD2 hFABP levels higher than post-CPB hFABP levels had an increased mortality compared with those patients whose POD2 hFABP levels decreased from their post-CPB level (hazard ratio, 10.9; 95% CI, 5.0-23.7; P = 7.2 × 10(-10)). Mortality in the 120 patients (10%) with a later hFABP peak was 18.3%, compared with 4.7% in those who did not peak later. Alternatively, for cTnI or CK-MB, no difference in mortality was detected.ConclusionCompared with traditional markers of myocardial injury after CABG surgery, hFABP peaks earlier and is a superior independent predictor of postoperative mortality and ventricular dysfunction.

Project description:BackgroundThe intra aortic balloon pump (IABP) is a mechanical assist device which improves cardiac function. The device has a well-established place in algorithms for managing low cardiac output following cardiac surgery. There is increasing evidence that certain cardiac surgery patients benefit from a period of preoperative augmentation with the intra aortic balloon pump.ObjectivesTo determine the effect of the preoperative intra aortic balloon pump on mortality and morbidity in a number of different patients groups undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.Search strategyThe Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) on The Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2009), MEDLINE (2000 to August 2009), EMBASE (1998 to August 2009), BIOSIS previews (1969 to August 2009) and ISI Proceedings (1990 to August 2009) were searched. References and ongoing registers of studies were checked. No language restrictions were applied.Selection criteriaRandomised controlled trials (RCTs) of any size or length were included.Data collection and analysisPapers were assessed for inclusion by two authors independently and differences were settled by consensus with a third author. Date are presented in the form of odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).Main resultsSix trials were included (five on-pump and one off-pump). This update adds the results of one further trial. Data from a total of 255 patients were included in the meta-analysis of mortality outcomes; all on-pump. Generally, the patients were considered as "high risk" and 132 were treated preoperatively with IABP and 123 served as controls. There were four hospital deaths in the intervention arm and 23 in the non-intervention arm (OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.08 to 0.41; P<0.0001). In a subgroup analysis, low cardiac index (<2.0 L/min/m(2)) was noted in 21 out of 105 patients in the treatment arm and 59 patients out of 88 in the non-treatment arm (OR 0.14, 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.25; P<0.00001). An off-pump versus on-pump analysis was not possible due to the limited number of off-pump studies. However a single well-conducted RCT suggested favourable effect of the preoperative IABP in off-pump patients.Authors' conclusionsEvidence suggests that preoperative IABP may have a beneficial effect on mortality and morbidity in specific high risk patient groups undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting, however there are many problems with the quality, validity and generalisability of the trials. However, the available evidence is not robust enough to extend the use of IABP to truly elective, high risk patients. Defining more precisely which patient groups may benefit would be the challenge for the future.

Project description:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between preoperative physical performance (grip strength, gait speed, timed up and go) and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients who have undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). From September 2019 to August 2021, a total of 497 CABG patients who met the inclusion criteria of this study were examined for grip strength, 4-m gait speed, and timed up and go (TUG) before CABG surgery. Among them, 438 were included in the final analysis. PPCs were classified according to the operational definition of Kroenke et al. and patients with clinically significant PPCs were included in the data analysis. Logistic regression was utilised to analyse the relationship between physical performance and clinically significant PPCs. Besides, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was applied to analyse the predictive effect of grip strength, gait speed, and TUG on clinically significant PPCs after the CABG procedure. In total, 103 (23.5%) patients developed clinically significant PPCs after CABG. After making adjustments for the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (EuroSCORE) and confounding factors, we established that low grip/weight (OR 0.510; 95% CI 0.363-0.715), slow gait speed (OR 0.619; 95% CI 0.517-0.741), and prolonged TUG (OR 1.617; 95% CI 1.379-1.895) were all independently correlated with clinically significant PPCs after CABG. The ROC curve analysis indicated that the area under the ROC curve of the integrated model of the three indicators (AUC 0.792 vs. 0.682, 0.754, 0.765) was larger than that of the model with a single indicator. Besides the predictive effect of the integrated model was superior to the models using grip/weight, gait speed, or TUG alone. Physical performance, including grip/weight, gait speed, and TUG, is a predictive factor for PPCs in CABG patients, and can be used in preoperative evaluations to and help improve the management of high-risk patients.
