BACKGROUND: The number of @entity1 with @entity454 requiring cardiac surgery is continuously increasing. Additionally, significant worsening in the overall risk profile of this group of @entity1 is noted. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of chronic @entity8 both in non-dialysis-dependent @entity177 and @entity454 @entity1 , on early mortality -  morbidity and late survival in a  series of cardiac surgery @entity1 at our institution. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 1344  @entity1 who had open heart surgery at our university hospital between 2010 and 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. @entity8 was defined according to preoperative glomerular filtration rate. @entity1 selection (n  =  80). Group  1  mild -  (GRF 59-30  mL/min), Group  2 moderate -  (GFR 29-15  mL/min), Group  3 end stage -  (GFR  <  15  mL/min) @entity177 . RESULTS: @entity8 was present in 5.95 % of all @entity1 studied. Group  1 -  55 (68.75%), Group  2 -  16 (20%), Group  3 -  9 (11.25%). No difference between the groups in the need for heart inotropic support was noted; however the use of these medications was necessary in 60.6% of all studied @entity1 . Forty nine percent in Group  1, 87.5% in Group  2 and 77% in Group  3, respectively. Renal replacement therapy in the early postoperative period was needed in 12  @entity1 , with significance between the groups (p  =  0.001). The overall hospital mortality was 2.5%. Follow-up was completed with a  mean of 1.4  years (range 2  months to 4  years). There were 6 (7.5%) late @entity204 . CONCLUSIONS: Our observations do not exhibit large variations in @entity260 and @entity204 in @entity1 with @entity177 , depending on the degree of @entity8 . It seems that @entity177 regardless of the degree of impairment is a  factor aggravating the intra and post-operative course in cardiac surgery @entity1 .

Does the Stage of XXXX Influence the Outcome in Cardiac Surgery?
