• Although there are publications in the literature stating that parameters related to the nutritional status of patients are associated with the clinical outcomes of those with coronary artery disease, it is also stated that there is insufficient data on the relationship between nutritional indices and long-term outcomes and major adverse cardiovascular events in patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting. This retrospective study was conducted with patients who underwent isolated elective on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting in our hospital. Patients who underwent emergency coronary artery bypass grafting or those with known atrial fibrillation in the preoperative period were excluded. Patients were analyzed and compared in two groups according to the development of postoperative atrial fibrillation. The data of 93 coronary artery bypass grafting patients (71 [76%] males) with a mean age of 62.86 ± 9.53 years included in the study were evaluated. Both groups had similar preoperative ejection fraction value, hemoglobin level, age, number of distal bypasses, and postoperative mortality rates. Although the mean cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic cross-clamping times were higher in Group 1, they were not statistically significant. In our study, the mean prognostic nutrition index value was 51.76 ± 3002. According to our study results, there was no statistically significant difference between prognostic nutrition index values and the development of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting, which is similar to some publications in the literature. We think that it would be beneficial to conduct randomized studies involving more patients on this subject.
