Prospective analysis of cerebrovascular events in patients following coronary artery bypass surgery

Background: Cerebrovascular events are the most common cause of disability in adults and can be classified into two categories: ischemic stroke hemorrhagic stroke. Risk factors for include age, gender, race, family history stroke, hypertension, smoking, heart disease, valvular arrhythmias, diabetes, obesity, dyslipidemia. Low cardiac output syndrome, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation also contribute to This study aims investigate incidence post-cardiac surgery risk contributing it. Methods: A prospective observational with a sample size 516 patients was conducted. Patients over age 40 who were undergoing CABG (both off on pump) included. subjected on-pump or off-pump coronary artery bypass as per requirement, but preferably off-pump. Results: Out patients, 13 developed strokes, which 8 (61.5%) had hypertension 10 (76.9%) 4 (30.8%) smokers, 6 (46.2%) normal LDL values, 7 (53.8%) high levels, none HDL 1 (7.7%) LV function, mild dysfunction, moderate severe dysfunction. 11 (84.6%) COPD. no prior MI, 5 (38.5%) recent MI that more than ten years old. renal functions, while disturbed functions. Conclusions: In this study, CVE after is 2.52%. All multiple factors. High LDL, low LVEF, deranged PVD, arrhythmia pre-op, anti-coagulation pump surgery, Cardioplegia usage, CCF urgent LCOS post-operatively post-operative
