مستخلص: Background and objective Cardiac surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures globally; its incidence has been on the rise due to the faster pace of population aging thanks to technological and epidemiological advances. Patients who undergo cardiac surgeries may face various postoperative complications that might affect their survival, and one of these major complications is infection. Nosocomial pneumonia, surgical site infection (SSI), mediastinitis, bacteremia, and sepsis are common infections encountered after surgeries. In this study, we aimed to determine the common risk factors related to postoperative infections at the King Faisal Cardiac Center from January 2014 to September 2020. Materials and methods  Records from 364 patients who underwent cardiac surgery and were aged above 18 years were assessed for postoperative infections in this retrospective cohort study. Patients who were immunosuppressed or had active systemic infections were excluded. Consent was waived by the Institutional Review Board. All procedures were performed at the King Faisal Cardiac Center, National Guard Hospital, Jeddah. Results Of the total 364 patients, 105 were women and 259 were men. The mean age of the cohort was 59 years (SD = 13) and the mean BMI was 29.1 kg/m 2 (SD = 5.3). The study population showed a high prevalence of cardiac risk factors and diseases: diabetes (n = 244, 67%), hypertension (n = 230, 63%), dyslipidemia (n = 144, 40%), smoking (n = 80, 22%), heart failure (n = 41, 11%), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (n = 6, 1.6%). The overall rate of postoperative infection was 32.7% (n = 120), and 17 (14%) of these infected patients underwent reoperations for infection. Conclusion Based on a thorough analysis of 364 patients undergoing various cardiac surgical procedures, including a multivariate analysis accounting for preoperative factors, there was a significant association between postoperative infections and hypertension, diabetes, increased preoperative activated partial thromboplastin time, and elevated HbA1c.
