24, 2025 In-patients undergoing coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG), a novel analysis evaluating surgeon preference for multi- versus single-arterialgrafting may help explain the differing results between prior retrospective analyses and randomized controlled trials regarding long-term survival.
Outcomes analyzed included mortality, complications, cardiac function, and hospital stay.Results:Meta-analysis of 5 studies with 58,232 patients showed that off-pump CABG was associated with a slightly lower complication rate: 15% for on-pump CABG and 13.5% The optimal approach remains debated. The pooled mortality rate was 2.5%
229 underwent MIDCAB, and 159 underwent FS-OPCAB LIMA-to-LAD grafting. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to adjust for selection bias and to estimate treatment effects on short- and long-term outcomes. Long-term outcomes did not differ significantly between study groups. units ± 1.83 h vs. 12.1 ± 26.4 h,
Objective To investigate the impact of prior coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG) and coronary lesion complexity on transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes for aortic stenosis. 23), which was not associated with better/worse clinical outcomes in patients with prior CABG.
BACKGROUND:Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication after cardiac surgery being associated with poorer outcomes. CONCLUSIONS:A presurgery global PALS <28% is a specific parameter to stratify patients at increased risk of POAF after coronaryarterybypassgraft. P<0.001).CONCLUSIONS:A
Objective Saphenous vein graft disease (SVGD) remains a challenging issue for patients with coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG). It is associated with poor outcomes and atherosclerosis is the major cause of SVGD. We aim to evaluate the relationship between the SVGD and UAR.
Objective Coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG) is an established revascularisation strategy for multivessel and left main coronaryartery disease. to 0.80; p=0.008), and no differences on other cardiovascular or bleeding outcomes after CABG.
Patients were then divided into two cohorts with or without carotid-cerebral artery disease (defined as stenosis of any carotid, vertebral or intracranial artery50%). Results:Of the overall 1002 patients, the most susceptible arteries of stenosis50% were internal carotid artery(34.2%, 686/2004).
This study assesses the outcomes of aprotinin in hi. Aprotinin, a serine protease inhibitor, has been used variably in cardiac surgery amidst ongoing debates about its safety following several previous studies.
Heart bypass surgery, formally known as coronaryarterybypassgraft (CABG) surgery, is a life-saving procedure that helps improve blood flow to the heart when coronaryarteries become blocked or narrowed. What is Heart Bypass Surgery?
BackgroundCoronary arterybypassgrafting (CABG) surgery has been a widely accepted method for treating coronaryartery disease. However, its postoperative complications can have a significant effect on long-term patient outcomes.
What are the outcomes in patients with left main disease with and without diabetes undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG)?
Understanding how smoking affects the heart and raises surgery risks can empower individuals to make healthier choices and improve outcomes when surgical intervention is necessary. Poor healing can compromise the outcomes of bloodless surgeries, which rely on minimal incisions and precise techniques.

The academic medical centers received three-star ratings in isolated coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG) and isolated mitral valve replacement and repair (MVRR) surgeries. Jersey Shore University Medical Center also received a three-star rating in isolated aortic valve replacement (AVR) surgery. and Canada.
The cardiothoracic surgery programs at four Northwell Health hospitals received this distinguished accolade, showcasing their commitment to delivering exceptional care and achieving outstanding outcomes. The STS star rating system is renowned as one of the most sophisticated and highly regarded measures of quality in healthcare nationally.
The primary outcome of the study was the incidence of POD. Secondary outcomes included the duration of mechanical ventilation, length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) and 30-day in-hospital mortality. In the control group (n=45), the prime solution included Ringer’s lactate serum.
