Abstract
The risk profile of patients undergoing surgery has worsened as their mean age has increased and as comorbid complaints have become more prevalent. However, there has been no simultaneous increase in risk-adjusted mortality. The potential benefits of new surgical advances such as off-pump surgery and multiple arterial grafting must be corroborated by future studies.
