Overview
Brief Summary
This study aims to investigate postoperative clinical, cognitive and neurophysiological assessment of patients after open heart surgery among sample of Egyptian patients.
Detailed Description
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABAG) is one of the most common major surgical procedures, as more than 800,000 patients worldwide undergo myocardial revascularization procedures every year. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is an extracorporeal circulation procedure that assists the operation of cardiac and great vessels and is associated with perioperative morbidity and mortality. Preoperative neurophysiological status as measured by electroencephalogram (EEG) had a specificity of 94.7% and a sensitivity of 76.9% for predicting 1-week postoperative cognitive status and with specificity of 78.3% and a sensitivity of 77.8% for predicting 3-months postoperative cognitive status.
