Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of clopidogrel premedication on in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events (MACCE) and bleeding outcomes before coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). Method A total of 2021 patients who underwent CABG from July 2003 to September 2005 were divided into either clopidogrel ( n = 479) or no clopidogrel (1542) group before CABG. Patients with clopidogrel administration ( n = 479) were subdivided into < 5 d ( n = 154) ,5~7d(n = 183)and >7d(n = 142) group according to timing of clopidogrel withdrawal before surgery. In-hospital MACCE and perioperative bleeding outcomes were analyzed among groups. Results Patients who took clopidogrel before surgery had nonsignificantly rates of bleeding and in-hospital MACCE compared with those patients not administered clopidogrel. No differences were found about the incidence of total bleeding,minor bleeding,transfusions of red blood cells,fresh frozen plasma,whole blood and in-hosptial MACCE among three subgroups.The < 5 d group had higher incidence of major bleeding and more platelets transfusions than 5 ~ 7 d [47.8% vs. 31.9%,P < 0.017; (0.08 ±0.38) U vs. (0.00±0.00) U,P <0.017,respectively]and >7 d group [47.8% vs. 20.3%,P <0.017; (0.08±0.38) U vs. (0.00±0.00) U,P <0.017,respectively). However,there were no significant differences between 5 ~ 7 d and > 7 d group ( P > 0.05). Conclusions Gopidogrel administration before CABG does not increase the incidence of in-hospital MACCE events. However,the perioperative risk of bleeding will rise if the patients withhold clopidogrel less than five days before surgery.
