A Predictive Nomogram for Intensive Care-Acquired Weakness after Cardiopulmonary Bypass.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICUAW) affects patient prognosis after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery, but its risk factors remain unclear. We investigated these risk factors and developed a nomogram for predicting ICUAW after CPB.

Methods

Baseline characteristics, preoperative laboratory data, and intra- and postoperative variables of 473 patients after CPB were determined in this prospective cohort study. Lower limb muscles on bedside ultrasound images were compared 1 day before and 7 days after CPB. Risk factors were assessed using logistic regression models.

Results

Approximately 50.95% of the patients developed ICUAW after CPB. The body mass index (BMI), New York Heart Association (NYHA) class, lactate, albumin, aortic clamping time, operatio
