A novel approach to attribute responsible physicians using inpatient claims
CONCLUSIONS: We provide a robust method to attribute physicians to patients, which is a necessary tool to understand physician-level variation in quality of care within the inpatient acute care setting. The proposed method provides consistency across facilities and eliminates unattributed patients resulting from unsatisfied business rules.PMID:35852889 | DOI:10.37765/ajmc.2022.89185

Coronary artery bypass grafting versus stent implantation in patients with chronic coronary syndrome and left main disease: insights from a register throughout Germany
ConclusionLeft main stenting is a safe and effective treatment option for CCS-patients suffering from left main coronary artery disease at reasonable economic cost.Graphic abstractCoronary artery bypass grafting versus stent implantation in patients with chronic coronary syndrome and left main disease: insights from a register throughout Germany. All cases with chronic coronary syndrome and left main stenosis treated in 2018 in Germany either with left main stenting or coronary bypass grafting were extracted from a nation-wide database. In-hospital outcomes were compared after logistic regression analysis.

PCSK9 and Cardiovascular Disease in Individuals with Moderately Decreased Kidney Function
Conclusions: Our findings reveal no relation of PCSK9 with baseline eGFR and albuminuria, but a significant association between higher PCSK9 concentrations and risk of cardiovascular disease independent of traditional risk factors including LDL-cholesterol levels.PMID:35387881 | DOI:10.2215/CJN.01230122

Impact of postoperative acute kidney injury on short-term outcomes of patients with Bentall surgery for any reason
CONCLUSION: Patients undergoing Bentall surgery who postoperatively developed AKI showed significantly higher morbidity and mortality. AKI points out to be an early predictor for poor outcomes. Thus, as a consequence, patients with postoperatively developed AKI should be highly monitored for immediate intervention.PMID:35099323 | DOI:10.1177/02676591211073865

Prognosis and Clinical Results after Coronary Artery Bypass Operation in Young Patients Aged < 45 Years: Chances and Limitations of a New Therapy Option
Thorac Cardiovasc Surg DOI: 10.1055/s-0041-1736229Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the recommended type of revascularization procedure in patients with left main or three-vessel disease and is considered an alternative when percutaneous coronary intervention is not feasible. We evaluated registry data to obtain long-term outcome data.All patients ≤45 years in whom CABG was performed between 2009 and 2019 were selected from the Heart and Diabetes Center NRW, Germany. Cox regression analysis was applied to estimate the incidence risk of events after surgery.A total of 209 patients (81.8% male) were included. Mean ...

Commentary: Silent brain lesions add noise to the on- versus off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting debate
The debate between on-pump (ONCABG) and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) has waged on for more than 30  years. Early proponents favored OPCABG based on the hypothesis that removing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) from the operation would mitigate perioperative complications such as stroke. However, after 3 large randomized controlled trials (Randomized On/Off Bypass [ROOBY], Coronary Artery Bypass Surg ery Off or On Pump Revascularization Study [CORONARY], and German Off Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Elderly Patients [GOPCABE]) failed to show a difference in stroke rate between ONCABG and OPCABG,1-...

Five-Year Outcome after Off-Pump or On-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Elderly Patients.
CONCLUSIONS: In elderly patients ≥75 years, the five-year survival rates as well as the combined outcome of death, myocardial infarction and repeat revascularization were similar after on-pump and off-pump CABG. Incomplete revascularization was associated with a lower five-year survival rate, irrespective of the type of surgery.

ICU Readmission after Cardiac Surgery —Still a Matter of Concern?
Conclusions In conclusion, readmission to the ICU after cardiac surgery is a rare complication that is still associated with excessive mortality. Establishment of an intermediate care unit proved to be an excellent means to reduce ICU stay without endangering post-surgery patients and significantly reduced the ICU readmission rate.
