Gender differences for Rapid After Bypass Back Into Telemetry tract following cardiac surgery

The Rapid After Bypass Back Into Telemetry program is based on a simple clinical algorithm to predict same-day transfer of patients to the cardiac telemetry unit following cardiac surgery. This program proved to be an excellent predictor for decreased postoperative complications, shorter intensive care unit and hospital stay, and lower costs. We believe that any candidate for cardiac surgery should be screened for eligibility to participate in the program with special focus on female patients to further improve their outcomes.
