OBJECTIVE: @entity73 has a negative impact on early postoperative morbidity and affects subjective quality of life. The role of asymptomatic @entity66 in developing postoperative @entity16 remains controversial. The aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of asymptomatic @entity543 on postoperative @entity73 . DESIGN: We investigated 127 @entity1 undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. The neuropsychological examination, including a cognitive battery of seven tests and two scales for evaluation of @entity1316 , was conducted the day before surgery and before the discharge from hospital. RESULTS: Early postoperative @entity73 (POCD) was detected in 46% of @entity1 . POCD was associated with longer duration of surgery (p = 0.02), @entity998 perioperatively (p < 0.05), @entity86 (p = 0.03), longer postoperative mechanical ventilation time and intensive care unit stay (p < 0.05). Carotid artery lesion was detected in 42 (68.8%) @entity1 . Multivariate regression analysis showed that @entity543 of more than 50% was an independant predictor of POCD (OR 26.89, CI 6.44-112.34). CONCLUSIONS: Asymptomatic @entity543 is a risk factor for @entity73 after coronary artery bypass grafting.
