Study summary

The study seeks to determine the value of CASUS in predicting mortality as compared with APACHE II scoring system among patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.

Read the detailed description

Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting will prospectively studied after the admission to the cardiac intensive care unit. Data on the preoperative condition, intraoperative parameters, and postoperative course will collected. CASUS and APACHE II scores will calculated on the first postoperative day. Clinical outcomes are defined as 7-day mortality, 30-day mortality and morbidity. Morbidity includes variables such as length of stay in the cardiac surgical intensive care unit and in the hospital.
