Five-Year Hospital Readmission After Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery and the Association With Off-Pump Surgery and Sex.

ABSTRACT: Background Limited data exist on long-term readmission and its association with patient and procedural characteristics after coronary artery bypass grafting. We aimed to investigate 5-year readmission after coronary artery bypass grafting and specifically focus on the role of sex and off-pump surgery. Methods and Results We performed a post hoc analysis of the CORONARY (Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting [CABG] Off or On Pump Revascularization) trial, involving 4623 patients. The primary outcome was all-cause readmission, and the secondary outcome was cardiac readmission. Cox models were used to investigate the association of outcomes with sex and off-pump surgery. Hazard function for sex was studied over time using a flexible, fully parametric model, and time-segmented analyses were performe
