Proteomics of Post-Operative Complications in Patients undergoing CABG

Status: Recruiting
This study aims to identify independent blood-based risk factors for postoperative complications and near-term events among patients undergoing CABG surgery. In particular, this study will be using proteomics, the study of all proteins produced by the cells found in blood, as well as genetic analysis to identify potential predictive markers of postoperative complications. We will collect blood samples from before and after surgery. This study does not involve any medical treatment other than the one prescribed by your doctor, nor does it involve any additional medical procedures.
