Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the differences between females and males undergoing cardiac surgery. The investigators will look at perioperative factors such as adaption of body weight, previous medical history, pharmacokinetics, transfusion, coagulation, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) related factors, cardiac function, inotropic requirements, risk, and outcome scores as well as morbidity and mortality at sort-term (within 30 days) and long-term (90 days and 1 year).
Detailed Description
There are now an increasing number of studies on preoperative cardiovascular differences in females and males, but no study to date has focused on a female-specific approach to perioperative anaesthesia and critical care in cardiac surgery patients. Given the higher mortality and morbidity in females after cardiac surgery, as well as the abovementioned sex differences, it is likely that females require different perioperative care than males, for better and faster recovery. The investigators hypothesise that females require different perioperative care (pathways) compared to males when undergoing cardiac surgery. The investigators would therefore like to investigate which factors are different in female and male patients, by setting up a database of perioperative parameters. By identifying the factors that adversely affect morbidity and mortality in females and linking these parameters, the investigators would like to improve outcome in fmales after cardiac surgery.
