Central nervous system complications of coronary artery bypass graft surgery: prospective analysis of 421 patients.
Open accessAbstract
A prospective analysis of 421 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery as the sole cardiac procedure was carried out to assess the frequency of central nervous system (CNS) complications. In all, 451 variables were assessed in each patient. Stroke occurred in 5.2% but was severe in only 2%. Prolonged encephalopathy occurred in 11.6% but usually resolved before discharge. No statistically significant pre- or intraoperative risk variables for CNS complications were found; specifically, age or pump times in excess of two hours were not significant factors. Postoperative use of an intraaortic balloon pump and pressor agents were significantly correlated with prolonged encephalopathy. The frequency of CNS injury in CABG surgery is similar to that in other forms of open heart surgery, and there has been little change in the frequency of CNS complications over the past seven years. Possible mechanisms of CNS damage during CABG surgery are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
