NEUROPHYSIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS IN PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS AFTER CORONARY BYPASS GRAFTING
The aim of the study was to investigate hospital dynamics of neurophysiological status of patients with coronary artery disease and diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2 after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Total of 37 patients (14 - with DM type 2) were observed. In the preoperative period in DM type 2 patients lower attention parameters were observed. On the 7-10th day after surgery cognitive function parameters decreased in all patients especially in DM type 2 patients. After CABG patients with DM type 2 had the tendency to greater low-frequency power in the electroencephalogram (EEG) compared with patients without DM that may indicate more severe ischemic brain damage under cardiopulmonary bypass. Thus, DM type 2 patients had lower neuropsychological performance compared with patients without DM at clinical period, that allows referring them to increased risk group of cognitive decline progression.
