Abstract
Postoperative complications after CABG ± AVR are associated with significantly increased incremental costs. The most costly complications include newly instituted hemodialysis, infectious complications, and perioperative myocardial infarction. Identification of the most common and the most costly complications provides opportunities to target improvement in patient quality and the delivery of cost-effective care.
