| description | Objective: To determine the risk of morbidity and mortality in patients receiving dental extractions before planned cardiovascular surgery (CVS) and examine factors that may affect the chance of oral health clearance. Patients and Methods: A retrospective medical record review was performed of patients who underwent dental screening before CVS from January 1, 2015, to December 31, 2021, at a major medical institution. A total of 496 patients met the inclusion criteria and were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 patients were cleared to advance to planned CVS (n=390). Group 2 patients were not cleared for surgery and subsequently underwent dental extractions before planned CVS (n=106). Results: Six patients (5.7%) experienced postoperative complications after dental extraction that resulted in an emergency room visit. No deaths occurred after dental extraction before CVS. However, 4 patients died within 30 days of CVS, 3 from Group 1 (0.77%) and 1 from Group 2 (0.94%). Dental extraction before planned CVS showed a borderline significant association with death based on unadjusted (P=.06) and age-adjusted analysis (P=.05). Patients who reported seeing a dentist routinely had a significantly higher chance of oral health clearance (P <.001). No differences were noted between the 2 groups with regard to age, sex, or 30-day hospital readmission rate. Conclusion: Patients who had dental extractions completed before planned CVS may be at an increased risk of mortality. Further studies are needed to examine this relationship. Emphasis should be on prioritization of routine dental visits before planned CVS. |
