Immediate coronary artery bypass graft surgery for acute coronary syndrome – Outcomes and trends over the past eight years

Conclusions The analysis of our patient file shows a decreasing trend in the number of patients undergoing emergency surgery due to ACS in our centre in the course of the last eight years. Between 2010 and 2013, the proportional representation of patients undergoing surgery due to UA decreased, while the percentage of patients undergoing surgery due to AMI and CS increased. Within the population of patients with ACS, we were also able to determine an increased frequency of some risk factors and increased thirty-day mortality among patients undergoing surgery.
