  1. CABG: coronary artery bypass grafting, BMI: body mass index, CPB: cardiopulmonary bypass, ICU: intensive care unit, LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; MV: Mechanical ventilation; HBP: systemic arterial hypertension,T Test was performed for parametric variables, Mann–Whitney test for nonparametric variables and Chi-Squared test for categoric variables. (*P < 0.05). Data expressed in percentage of occurrence is the prevalence in this sample.
