Background Sternal wound infections (SWIs) can be some of the most complex surgical-site infections (SSIs) and pose a considerable risk following coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). Objective To capture the cost burden of SWIs following CABG across European countries. Methods We modeled a standardized care pathway for CABG, starting at the point of surgery and extending to 1-year post surgery. The Markov model captures the incidence and cost of an SWI (deep or superficial SWIs). The cost burden is calculated from a h
