We found no effect of the day of the week on risk-adjusted short-term mortality, stroke, and the requirement for postoperative dialysis after elective cardiac surgery. Overall, the patients operated on during the weekdays were less likely to return to theatre for bleeding. In isolated CABG, the day of the week did not affect any outcomes.
