We demonstrated a robust relationship between low serum magnesium levels after CABG and a 2-fold increased incidence of Q-wave infarction and all-cause mortality rate as long as 1 year after surgery. This relationship is independent of known preoperative and intraoperative predictors of adverse outcomes. This study provides a rationale for a randomized controlled trial of magnesium therapy during CABG.
