Coronary artery bypass grafting in octogenarians: a nomogram for predicting all-cause mortality.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The benefits and risks of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in octogenarians remain unclear. This study aimed to identify the predictors of increased risk of all-cause mortality in octogenarian patients after CABG.

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed the data of 1636 octogenarians who underwent isolated elective on-pump CABG between 2007 and 2016. The primary endpoint was mortality from any cause. The Kaplan-Meier curve was generated for mortality. A univariate Cox regression was performed for preprocedural and procedural variables. The Akaike information criterion (AIC) using the Cox proportional hazard model was applied to determine the strongest predictors. We designed a nomogram based on the selected variables to calculate the mortality risk after one, fi
