Introduction Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the most common cardiac surgical procedure. The prognosis of revascularization via CABG is determined by the patency of the used grafts, for which an intact endothelium is essential. There was also a non-ischemia-reperfusion control group ( n  = 8).

Since the clip is inserted through an artery, it eliminates the need for risky chest incisions.

Then, they place a graft.
