Propensity score-based comparison of high-risk coronary artery bypass grafting vs. left ventricular assist device implantation in patients with coronary artery disease and advanced heart failure

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

ObjectivesRevascularization in patients with severely reduced left ventricular function and coronary artery disease (CAD) is associated with a high perioperative risk. The in-hospital stroke rate was similar (LVAD 7 [5.4%] vs. CABG 8 [6.2%], p = 0.9). In-hospital survival, 1-year survival, and 3-year survival were 90.5%

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Versus Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients With Left Main Disease With or Without Diabetes: Findings From a Pooled Analysis of 4 Randomized Clinical Trials

Circulation

BACKGROUND:Diabetes may be associated with differential outcomes in patients undergoing left main coronary revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). 1.52]) or without (155/1634 [9.7%] versus 142/1655 [8.9%]; hazard ratio, 1.08 [95% CI, 0.86–1.36;PintHR=0.87)

Impact of Diabetes on Outcomes in Left Main Coronary Revascularization: PCI vs. CABG

Cardiology Update

Left main coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes pose significant challenges in cardiovascular care, often leading to adverse outcomes. However, the comparative long-term efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with these conditions remains unclear.

Prediction of postoperative stroke in patients experienced coronary artery bypass grafting surgery: a machine learning approach

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

BackgroundCoronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery has been a widely accepted method for treating coronary artery disease. However, its postoperative complications can have a significant effect on long-term patient outcomes.

Impact of prior coronary artery bypass grafting and coronary lesion complexity on outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement for severe aortic stenosis

Coronary Artery Disease Journal

Objective To investigate the impact of prior coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and coronary lesion complexity on transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes for aortic stenosis. The impact of the CABG SYNTAX score was also evaluated in patients with prior CABG.

How Smoking Affects Your Heart and Increases Surgery Risk

MIBHS

This damage accelerates the formation of plaques, leading to atherosclerosisa condition where arteries narrow and harden, restricting blood flow. Increased Blood Clot Risk: Smoking enhances the bloods clotting tendency, raising the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Glorifying FAME 3, could end up as academic mischief ! “PCI, in isolation can’t beat CABG, but with FFR it can”

Dr. S. Venkatesan MD

FAME 3) FAME 1 (Fractional Flow Reserve Versus Angiography for Multivessel Evaluation) Purpose The FAME 1 study aimed to compare the efficacy of FFR-guided PCI versus angiography-guided PCI in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD). for PCI vs. 6.9% We can’t force it to happen.
