Fig 1 Prevalence of low cardiac output syndrome by high-risk factors. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than 0.20, reoperative coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (redo CABG), emergent and urgent surgery (Emerg/urg), elderly patients 75 years and older (Age 75+), left main coronary stenosis (Left main), and female gender.

Fig 2 Risk profile of patients with left ventricular ejection fraction less than 0.20 by era of surgery. (CHF = congestive heart failure; LMD = left main coronary disease; Preop MI = preoperative myocardial infarction; Preop shock = preoperative cardiogenic shock. Numbers over the bars are the p values.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 2011 92, 1678-1684DOI: (10.1016/j.athoracsur.2011.06.017) Copyright © 2011 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
