Prognostic value of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in coronary artery bypass grafting☆

Abstract: This study on chronic lung comorbidity in CABG patients shows that this association can be of deleterious prognostic value but this effect is directly related to the degree of functional severity. Preoperative FEV1<60% must be considered as a primary prognostic factor in patients undergoing CABG procedures.

“…This reflects previous reports on this topic. [6][7][8][9] Also similar to prior studies, 35,36 payor status was associated with PLOS in our analysis. Because maintaining airway pressures of 10 cm H 2 O has been observed to significantly reduce atelectasis, pneumonia, and reintubation, 37,38 prophylactic continuous positive airway pressure may benefit COPD patients following CABG.…”

“…[3][4][5] Among CABG patients, COPD is a predictor of prolonged length of stay (PLOS), prolonged mechanical ventilation, and postoperative complications (eg, pneumonia). [6][7][8][9] COPD also is an important predictor of long-term survival following CABG. [3][4][5] However, little is known about the synergistic effect of PLOS and COPD on survival.…”

“…The incidence of complications increases with patient age and the severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as measured with pulmonary function testing. 1204,1205 None of these studies, however, address the relative risks and benefits of CABG in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, thereby precluding a specific recommendation regarding the performance of CABG in these patients. In preparation for CABG, optimizing pulmonary function is imperative.…”

“…Unwanted events of the respiratory system, such as respiratory failure and pneumonia, can cause postoperative complication in COPD patients on whom CABG is performed [7]. There are studies showing that as the stages of COPD increase so does morbidity and mortality in COPD patients on whom coronary artery surgery is performed [8,9]. It has been reported in many studies that postoperative complications are most frequently seen in the COPD patient group when compared to the control group [6][7][8][9].…”

“…Futer et al [8] have evaluated mortality and morbidity according to obstruction severity in COPD patients and mortality has been found to be associated with the degree of obstruction. The patients whose FEV 1 value was under 60% was found to be specifically higher than those whose mortality was over 60% (24.6% vs. 1.4%) (p< 0.001).…”
