Coronary Angiography Within 30 Days From Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery: Indications, Findings, and Outcomes.
Journal of Invasive Cardiology 2023 Februrary 16
BACKGROUND: The incidence, indications, and outcomes of coronary angiography (CAG) performed within 30 days following coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) have received limited study.
METHODS: We reviewed patients who underwent CAG within 30 days following CABG between April 2018 and September 2021 at a large quaternary healthcare system.
RESULTS: Of 2209 patients who underwent CABG during the study, 111 (5%) underwent CAG within 30 days following CABG. Mean age was 65 ± 10 years and they had high prevalence of comorbidities. Graft utilization was as follows: left internal mammary artery (LIMA) (84%); saphenous vein graft(s) (SVG) (81%); and right internal mammary artery (RIMA) (22%). The most common presentations/indications for angiography were cardiogenic shock (41%), ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (32%), and achieving complete revascularization by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (16%). The LIMA, RIMA, and SVGs were completely/partially occluded in 41 (44%), 10 (42%), and 11 (50%) of patients, respectively. Of the 111 patients who underwent CAG, 55 (50%) underwent PCI, including 47 (85%) to the native vessel and 8 (15%) to the bypass graft, and 19 (17%) underwent repeat sternotomy. Overall, 29 patients (26%) required 30-day readmission following CAG and 19 (17%) died.
CONCLUSION: The incidence of CAG within 30 days following CABG is approximately 5%. Patients who need CAG following CABG have high complication rates (26% readmission and 17% mortality, respectively, at 30 days).
