The study featured CABG patients that were receiving treatment at the Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Baylor scott & White Health in Temple, Texas between January 1, 2020 and July 31, 2021. During this period, 254 CABG procedures were performed at the medical facility. Ultrafiltration therapy was used in 17 patients. Although the patients did experience an elevated mean Society of Thoracic Surgeons mortality rate of 5.75. The survival rate of patients undergoing ultrafiltration was 100%. 

“Ultrafiltration technology has been used for decades to successfully treat advanced heart failure patients and data hav been published to demonstrate its outcomes, but its application in cardiac surgery to treat fluid overload is innovative,” said Daniel Beckles, M.D., Surgical Director of Heart Transplantation and Mechanical Circulatory Support at Baylor Scott & White Health and the study’s lead author. “These favorable results are consistent with the clinical findings in other large academic centers using ultrafiltration technology in cardiac surgery, and we are eager to gather additional multi-institutional data about the use of Aquadex for this challenging patient population.”
