A new center: First six months analysis of adult cardiac surgery
Özet
Objective: Cardiac surgery centers are developing and growing in recent years. We aimed to evaluate the first six months results of cardiac surgery operations that performed in our clinic which built new. Material and Methods: One hundred seven (73 men, 34 women; mean age 58.35±11.15 years) consecutive patient operated between October 2011 and March 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. While hypertension (43.9%) was the most common disease followed by diyabetes (39.2%), hyperlipidemia (35.5%) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (21.4%). Coronary artrey bypass graft operation was applied to 86 (80.3%) patients. The other procedures were; valve operation, atrial septal defect repair and Benthall. Results: Hospital mortality was 2.8% with 3 cases. Two of the patients were acute myocardial infarction, the other one was with left ventricular aneurysm. One of these patients diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction was taken to operation accompanied by cardiopulmonary resuscitation because of cardiopulmonary arrest. Postoperative wound infection was seen in 5 patiens. Saphenous vein wound infection in 3 and sternal wound infection in 2 patients was seen. Postoperative atrial fibrillation was seen in 28% of patients. Sinusal rhythm restored in all postoperative atrial fibrillations by medikal treatment. Revision operation for bleeding in 3 and for resistant ventricular fibrillation in 1 patient were performed. Conclusion: We thought that cardiac surgery operations that started at October 2011 in our clinic could be performed with acceptable mortality and morbidity rates.
