Patients were classified into two groups based on preoperative left ventricle ejection fraction (&lt;35% and &gt;35%). The primary endpoint was the change of postoperative ejection fraction.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Results</strong>: In this study, 72 patients had preoperative left ventricle ejection fraction &lt;35% (group A) while the other 588 patients had ejection fraction &gt;35% (group B). Among both groups, the duration of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and aortic clamp (AxC) were not significantly different (<em>P</em> &gt; 0.05). The transformation of pre- and postoperative EF in groups A and B was significantly different (2.91+10.31 vs. -0.14+4.57, <em>P</em> &lt; 0.001). There was a significant difference in the duration of ICU stay (73.42+112.55 vs. 34.43+64.99, <em>P</em> &lt; 0.001) and postoperative ventilatory support (25.54+43.92 vs. 16.42+45.87, <em>P</em> &lt; 0.008) between group A and B.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Conclusion</strong>: Low preoperative EF showed better improvement in cardiac function after surgery. We concluded that the result could be affected by revascularization of hibernating myocardium.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>}, number={3}, journal={The Heart Surgery Forum}, author={Soetisna, Tri Wisesa and Nugraha, Wiraga Adi and Rokim, Fitri Setyani and Namretta, Lisca and Pradana, Muhammad Bagus Ronidipta and Utama, Digjaya}, year={2022}, month={May}, pages={E425-E428} }
