Postoperative morbidity in patients with chronic viral hepatitis undergoing cardiac surgery: a retrospective study
2013
Methods We studied 103 patients with documented chronic viral hepatitis who had cardiac surgery in our institution between 2001-2012. These subjects were evaluated for preoperative liver dysfunction with the Model for End Stage Liver Disease (MELD) Score. In subjects who were on anticoagulants, a modified score (MELD-XI) was used. Other comorbidities that were considered were diabetes, dyslipidemia, obesity, hypertension, COPD, history of stroke and smoking status.
