Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Incidence of bloodstream infection (BSI) in postoperative period (clinical evidence of sepsis with laboratory-confirmed bacteraemia from blood sample)

    Incidence of bloodstream infection (BSI) in postoperative period (clinical evidence of sepsis with laboratory-confirmed bacteraemia from blood sample)

    within 7 days after a cardiovascular surgery

  • Extracorporeal circulation time during surgery (minutes)

    Extracorporeal circulation time during surgery (minutes)

    one time assessment at baseline

  • In-hospital mortality (number) for patients with BSI vs those without BSI after a cardiovascular surgery

    In-hospital mortality is defined as death before discharge

    during hospital stay (usually up to 4 weeks)

  • Surgical intervention rate (Incidence of cardiovascular re-operation) during the initial hospital stay (number)

    Surgical intervention rate (Incidence of cardiovascular re-operation) during the initial hospital stay

    during hospital stay (usually up to 4 weeks)

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Incidence of cardiovascular events (stroke, myocardial infarction) during hospitalization

    during hospital stay (usually up to 4 weeks)

  • Incidence of cardiovascular events (stroke, myocardial infarction) during follow-up

    after hospital discharge until follow- up assessment (up to 10 years)

  • Incidence of cardiovascular re-operation during the follow up

    after hospital discharge until follow- up assessment (up to 10 years)

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Patients having suffered from sepsis after cardiac surgery in a period between 2009 and 2019 will be evaluated.

You may qualify if:

  • adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery

You may not qualify if:

  • patients having active or previous endocarditis
  • patients whose causative microorganism of postoperative BSI was identical to that isolated from preoperative or intraoperative samples
  • patients with common skin colonized microorganisms, such as coagulase-negative Staphylococci, Viridans group Streptococci, Corynebacterium species, Bacillus species, Propionibacterium species, and Aerococcus species or Micrococcus species, which were isolated from only a single blood sample and without evidence of clinical sepsis, because contamination was considered.
