Abstract

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) continues to be a major contributor to morbidity and mortality worldwide, placing a substantial burden on healthcare systems and economies.


Objective: This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of coronary artery dominance in patients undergoing CABG at the Peshawar Institute of Cardiology.


Material and Methods: This study included patients who had coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) from February 2023 to January 2024. The research sample consisted of 220 consecutive patients who had Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) at the Peshawar Institute of Cardiology throughout the particular study duration.


Results: The research had a total of 220 patients. The average age of the patients was 60 years, with a majority of male individuals (67.7%). Hypertension was the most common comorbidity, affecting 75.9% of the population. This was followed by hyperlipidemia, which affected 59.5% of the population, and diabetes mellitus, which affected 48.6%. The most often seen consequences were myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, and wound infection, which affected 8.1%, 13.5%, and 6.5% of patients, respectively.


Conclusion: This research enhances the existing knowledge on the results of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and offers significant insights that may guide clinical decision-making and improve patient care.
