Description

Introduction:

• Hypertension is prevalent in patients undergoing cardiac surgery and associated with a higher incidence of cardiovascular complications.

• Very few studies have investigated aspirin and hypertension, particularly its effects on major outcomes in hypertensive patients undergoing cardiac surgery.^1,2

Objective
