The purpose of this study was to describe the extent to which late postoperative health outcomes vary as a function of change in body mass index (BMI) in per-sons > or = 65 years of age undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The mean age of the 90 persons in the original sample was 72.27 (+/-4.85) years. At follow-up x = 18.73, s = 2.56 months postsurgery), 90% (n = 79 alive, n = 2 deceased, proxy completed interview) were contacted; 73% (n = 59)completed the telephone interview; and 9% (n = 8) were alive but lost to follow-up. BMI (kg/m(2)) was calculated from self-reported weight at follow-up. Out-comes included the Physical Component Summary(PCS) scale of the SF-36 Health Survey and readmission data. The (_)x (s) for BMI at preoperative, postoperative, postdischarge, and follow-up were 28.1 (4.9) kg/m(2), 28.76 (4.9) kg/m(2), 27.11 (4.8) kg/m(2), and 27.95(4.7) kg/m(2), respectively. BMI changed over time, P
