A total of 200 patients were included in the study - 100 patients operated without
the use of the checklist (G1) and 100 patients operated with this intervention (G2).
Preoperative characteristics of both groups are described in Clinical characteristics of the patients.Regarding sex distribution in this study, there were a predominance of males and a
higher mortality in male patients. Intraoperative characteristics of both groups are
described in Intraoperative characteristics.The checklist group (G2) had a shorter hospital stay and a lower bleeding volume,
both without statistical significance. However, there was a greater need for blood
transfusion. Postoperative state.Regarding postoperative infection in G1, nine patients had Coronavirus disease 2019
(COVID-19), eight had surgical site infection, eight had pneumonia, and two had
urinary tract infection. There were single cases of pulmonary sepsis, sepsis of
unknown origin, bloodstream infection, catheter-related infection, pseudomembranous
colitis, and 

Postoperative complications. Group 1 (G1) includes patients operated
without the use of the hemostasis checklist; Group 2 (G2) includes
patients operated with the use of the hemostasis checklist. AKI=acute
kidney injury; AMI=acute myocardial infarction; CPB=cardiopulmonary
bypassWithin the group of tachyarrhythmias and heart blocks, atrial fibrillation with rapid
ventricular response (AFRVR) was the most prevalent, with 15 cases in G1 and 12 in
G2.There was a higher occurrence of reoperation in G1; in one patient, it was due to
dehiscence of the aortic cannulation suture for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and in
another patient, it was due to cardiac tamponade after bleeding in the right atrium.
In G2, the reoperated patient presented bleeding from aorta-saphenous vein
anastomosis.There were eight deaths in G1 and two deaths in G2. Of the eight deaths in G1, two
occurred in patients who required reoperation.
