“…It is expected that an increasing number of obese patients will require cardiac surgery. 4 Even though not always accurate, BMI still is a useful measure of overall body habitus because it is highly correlated with body surface area 5 ; it also commonly is used in anthropometric measurements in most previous and new risk models for the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS). [5][6][7] Several studies have examined the effects of obesity on inhospital mortality and long-term survival with variable conclusions.…”

“…Die Koronarangiographie stellt den Goldstandard zur Abklärung einer KHK dar [18]. Eine neuere Auswertung zeigt aber, dass die Untersuchung bei morbider Adipositas mit einem erhöhten Risiko für vaskuläre und kontrastmittelabhängige Komplikationen verbunden ist und zudem eine erhöhte Mortalität aufweist [4]. Ein Zugang über die A. radialis sollte erwogen werden.…”

“…Bleeding and vascular complications after cardiac catheterization and PCI remain a common and important concern and are strongly associated with worse clinical outcomes [8,9]. It has been previously demonstrated that both morbid obesity and lean body mass index (BMI) are associated with a higher risk for vascular complications and requirement for transfusion after PCI [10]. It is not known whether BMI predicts which patients might benefit from TRA, compared with femoral approach for PCI.…”
