The effect of HbA1c on coronary artery bypass grafting mortality and morbidity in concomitant diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease
Aim: In our study, we aimed to comparatively examine the effect of HbA1c levels and diabetes disease on patients undergoing isolated coronary bypass surgery. Material and Methods: 200 consecutive patients (152 male, 48 female, mean age 61.1) who underwent coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) in our hospital were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 consisted of patients with HbA1c ≥6.5 % (n=100) and group 2 consisted of patients with HbA1c 7.65% was the threshold value for occurrence of mediastinitis with a sensitivity of 80% and specificity of 65.6%. Conclusion: As a result, poor control of blood glucose levels following CABG is a risk factor for infection and HbA1c is a significant marker for identification of preoperative infection risk.
