HighlightsThe frequency of coronary artery bypass grafting in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NonSTEMI) in the Research Institute of Cardiology “Tomsk National Research Medical Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences” is equal to 10%, hospital mortality is 4.3%, which corresponds to the literature data. Patients with NonSTEMI who undergo coronary artery bypass grafting in cardiac surgery centers in Tomsk, Kemerovo and Chelyabinsk do not differ in main clinical and anamnestic characteristics. Patients with NonSTEMI who undergo CABG in cardiac surgery centers in Leipzig and Kiel (Germany), have a higher surgical risk compared with patients in Russian centers, while they are operated on much earlier than in Russian centers, and there are no statistically significant differences in hospital mortality between clinics. AbstractAim. To perform a comparative analysis of clinical and anamnestic characteristics and treatment outcomes in NonSTEMI patients who underwent CABG in 2020 at the Research Institute of Cardiology “Tomsk National Research Medical Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences” and in other domestic and foreign clinics.Methods. The retrospective study involved 23 NonSTEMI patients/ The patients clinical and anamnestic characteristics after CABG and the main outcome of treatment were analyzed. The obtained results were compared with the data of 4 other cardiac surgery clinics that were found in the literature.Results. The frequency of CABG in NonSTEMI patients is 10%, which corresponds to the literature data. The mean age of these patients was 64.8±8.4 years, LVEF – 55.5±9.2%, the risk according to the GRACE score – 4.9±5.6%, according to the EuroSCORE – 7.3±2.1%. There were no patients with cardiogenic shock or dialysis. The duration of hospitalization prior to surgery was 7.4±5.3 days. The hospital mortality was 4.3%. The clinical and anamnestic characteristics of NonSTEMI patients who underwent CABG surgery in the clinics of Tomsk, Kemerovo (n = 66), Chelyabinsk (n = 101), Leipzig (n = 758) and Kiel (n = 461) were compared. The characteristics of patients of the Russian clinics did not differ. It was found that in Russian clinics these patients were younger, and had less severe complications of the disease, and less severe comorbid diseases in comparison with patients of the German clinics. In particular, in the Russian clinics, CABG was not performed in patients with cardiogenic shock, unlike in the German clinics. At the same time, the German clinics conduct surgery on NonSTEMI patients much earlier than in the Russian clinics: only 10–20% of patients are operated on in the Russian clinics in the first 3 days of the disease, whereas in Leipzig – 42% of patients, and in Kiel almost all patients – on the first day of the disease; there were no statistically significant differences in hospital mortality between clinics.Conclusion. According to the results of the analysis, clinical and anamnestic characteristics of NonSTEMI patients who undergo CABG in Russian cardiac surgery centers (Tomsk, Kemerovo and Chelyabinsk) do not differ. Compared with the patients of the German cardiac surgery centers of Leipzig and Kiel, Russian patients have a lower surgical risk, they are operated on much later, there were no statistically significant differences in hospital mortality between clinics.
