Description
Silvia Mariani and colleagues compared in 2026 outcomes for patients needing life support after bypass surgery alone versus bypass plus left heart valve surgery. They studied 639 adults across 34 centres between 2000 and 2020 who required postcardiotomy extracorporeal life support.
Valve-surgery patients were older, more often had lung artery hypertension, and needed longer bypass times and more reoperations. In-hospital death ran 63.1 percent with valve surgery against 54.8 percent without, a gap that held after adjustment. Five-year survival after discharge did not differ. Early recognition of patients likely to need support after valve surgery may improve outcomes.
