Prognosis following Coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) depends on a variety of factors. In general, CABG improves the chances of survival of patients who are at high risks, such as those patients with the left main disease. After approximately 5 years the difference in survival rate between those who have had surgery and those treated by medication therapy diminishes. Age at the time of CABG is critical to the prognosis, therefore younger patients with no complicating diseases have a high probability of greater longevity. Recommended by ACC 2021 guideline, STS score system can be used to predict adverse outcomes of CABG such as death, renal failure, prolonged hospital stay, and mediastinitis.
