Predictors and Outcome of Gastrointestinal Complications in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
Farzan Filsoufi, MD, Parwis B. Rahmanian, MD, Javier G. Castillo, MD, Corey Scurlock, MD, Peter E. Legnani, MD, David H. Adams, MD
Gastrointestinal complications following cardiac surgery remain rare with an incidence <1% in a contemporary series. The key to a lower incidence of GICs lies in systematic application of preventive measures and new advances in intraoperative management. Identification of independent risk factors would facilitate the determination of patients who would benefit from additional perioperative monitoring. Future resources should therefore be redirected to mitigate GICs in high-risk patients.
