The Impact of Body Mass Index on the Duration of Hospital Stay After Cardiac Surgery

Our results demonstrated no correlation between BMI and length of hospital stay after cardiac surgery. However, the obesity class III patients within the CABG group had the longest length of hospital stay. These findings highlight the importance of shifting the focus of healthcare planning to obesity class III, particularly in the context of specific surgical procedures.

Abstract

Our results demonstrated no correlation between BMI and length of hospital stay after cardiac surgery. However, the obesity class III patients within the CABG group had the longest length of hospital stay. These findings highlight the importance of shifting the focus of healthcare planning to obesity class III, particularly in the context of specific surgical procedures.
