Study summary

This is a single center retrospective study of patients who underwent off pump coronary artery bypass surgery between 2016.11\~2023.05. From this patient group, preoperatively non-anemic patients were selected and were divided into 2 cohorts according to their preoperative iron status; iron replete and iron deficient. These two cohorts were compared to evaluate the effect of preoperative iron deficiency on patient outcomes.

The primary end point was the occurrence of composite morbidity/mortality end points which were: in hospital mortality, acute kidney injury (AKI), stroke, deep sternal infection, hemostatic reoperation, prolonged mechanical ventilation of more than 24hours, delirium and postoperative myocardial infarction. Occurrence of any one of these outcomes counted as primary end point met. Secondary outcome was to evaluate and compare hemoglobin recovery of iron replete and deficient patients until one year after surgery.

Groups and cohorts

  • Iron replete

    Patient who did not meet the criteria for iron deficiency (see below)

  • Iron deficient

    patients with preoperative iron profile of either of the following were defined as iron deficient: 1. serum ferritin \<100mcg/L 2. 100mcg/L \< serum ferritin \<300mcg/L and * transferrin saturation \< 20% or * C reactive protein ≥ 5mg/L

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of participants with in hospital mortality, stroke, deep sternal infection, hemostatic reoperation, delirium

    This outcome is a composite of the following: in hospital mortality, acute kidney injury (AKI), stroke, deep sternal infection, hemostatic reoperation, prolonged mechanical ventilation of more than 24hours, delirium and postoperative myocardial infarction. The occurrence of any one of these was regarded as primary end point met.

    Time frame: from the end of surgery until patient discharge (assessed up to day 60)

  2. Number of participants with acute kidney injury

    This outcome is a composite of the following: in hospital mortality, acute kidney injury (AKI), stroke, deep sternal infection, hemostatic reoperation, prolonged mechanical ventilation of more than 24hours, delirium and postoperative myocardial infarction. The occurrence of any one of these was regarded as primary end point met.

    Time frame: until 7 days after surgery

  3. Number of participants with post operative myocardial infarction

    This outcome is a composite of the following: in hospital mortality, acute kidney injury (AKI), stroke, deep sternal infection, hemostatic reoperation, prolonged mechanical ventilation of more than 24hours, delirium and postoperative myocardial infarction. The occurrence of any one of these was regarded as primary end point met.

    Time frame: until 48 hours post-surgery

Secondary outcomes

  1. Post discharge hemoglobin

    Data of hemoglobin levels after discharge until 1 year after surgery was collected to evaluate hemoglobin recovery to preoperative baseline levels.

    Time frame: Until 1 year after surgery
