The present retrospective study was undertaken to identify the major survival and nonsurvival determinants of patients who were in need of intra-aortic ballon pump support after cardiac surgery. Patients & Methods: This study was conducted on 46 out of 2200 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) during one year in Tehran Shahid Rajaie Hospital and required IABP support. The patients were divided into survival(n=33) and nonsurvival(n=13) groups. Nonsurvival group was divided into 2 subgroups weaned and not weaned from IABP. Variables compared between 2 groups were: sex, age, body surface, smoking, acute myocardial infarction(AMI), diabetes mellitus, previous cardiac surgery, ejection fraction(EF), functional class according to Canadian Cardiovascular Society(CCS), duration of cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB), aortic occlusion, IABP support, mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit(ICU) stay. Differences between 2 groups were analysed via student’s t-test, chi-square test, and frequency analysis. A Pvalue of M3 ER -
