Abstract
The impact of LVEF less than 0.20 on development of postoperative LCOS has increased markedly in the latest era of our study. Prudent preoperative evaluation in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction is critical. Further innovative research in myocardial protection and circulatory support is warranted in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction.
