Predictors and outcome of ICU readmission after cardiac surgery.

摘要: OBJECTIVE: Readmission to the intensive care unit (ICU) after cardiac surgery is associated with higher costs and may be correlated an increased mortality. We wanted evaluate predictors of ICU readmission analyze outcome those patients. METHODS: 3523 patients who underwent CABG and/or valve between 2004 2007 were reviewed retrospectively. The reasons for postoperative course analyzed. Furthermore, perioperative risk factors determined by multivariate regression analysis. RESULTS: Of 3374 discharged from ICU, 5.9 % (198) required a second stay in (group r). rate was 4.8 following 8.9 +/- ( P 24 h, reexploration bleeding low output state independent readmission. CONCLUSIONS: Patients valve/combined are more likely require ICU. Respiratory complications most common To reduce rate, it necessary treat cardio-respiratory problems early, particularly showing predictive factors.
