Analysis of systemic vascular resistance after cardiac surgery: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hypotension is a dangerous vital sign frequently encountered during the postoperative management of cardiac surgery. However, factors influencing the systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), which is strongly related to hypotension, are not well understood. This study evaluated the characteristics of the SVRI according to the type of cardiac surgery.

Methods

During this retrospective cohort study, we used the clinical data of patients who underwent cardiac surgery at Asahi General Hospital from April 2014 to August 2020. We analyzed their vital signs during the first 12 hours after surgery and evaluated the differences in vital signs among four types of surgery: mitral valve (MV) surgery; aortic valve (AV) surgery; coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG); and tho
